Correct answer
- AEn carreteras convencionales.On conventional roads.
Fatal cyclist accidents happen most often on conventional roads, because of the lack of proper infrastructure for cyclists, such as cycle lanes and signs. The General Traffic Regulations recognise that cyclists are vulnerable to motor vehicles on roads outside built-up areas. The rules also say that on these roads poor visibility and excessive speed increase the risk of accidents.
