Explanation

Article 36 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) prohibits vehicles that must use the hard shoulder from riding side by side, but makes an exception for bicycles, which may ride two abreast. They must ride in single file on stretches with no visibility, at night, in poor visibility or when they obstruct traffic.
