You are driving your car on a road outside built-up areas and come to a junction where right of way is not signposted. Must you let a group of cyclists approaching from your right go first?

- BNo, porque a efectos de prioridad se debe entender que cada ciclista con su bicicleta son vehículos independientes.No, because for right-of-way purposes each cyclist with their bicycle is a separate vehicle.
- CSí, porque a efectos de prioridad de paso se debe considerar al grupo como una única unidad móvil.Yes, because for right-of-way purposes the group must be treated as a single moving unit.

Correct answer
- CSí, porque a efectos de prioridad de paso se debe considerar al grupo como una única unidad móvil.Yes, because for right-of-way purposes the group must be treated as a single moving unit.
The group of cyclists is treated as a single moving unit. This means that, at the junction, the driver must let all the cyclists in the group go first, because their safety and the flow of traffic come first. This helps to avoid dangerous situations and keeps traffic flowing more safely.
