Correct answer

  • CEvitar las señales acústicas cerca de ellos.Avoid sound signals near them.
Explanation

Bicycles are very unstable vehicles. If we sound the horn near a cyclist, they may be startled, which can cause sudden movements and make them lose their balance. That is why you should avoid sound signals. Remember that when overtaking cyclists, both in and outside built-up areas, we must keep a side gap of at least 1.50 metres.
