On which part of a road should a cyclist ride?
- As close as possible to the road’s left edge, facing the incoming traffic.
- Correct answer: As close as possible to the right hand side of the road.
- Where all other vehicles are driving.
- It is absolutely forbidden to ride bicycle on any part of a road.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: As close as possible to the right hand side of the road.
A cyclist usually travels more slowly than a motor vehicle, so they must ride as close as possible to the right edge of the road. This lets a faster vehicle overtake safely. Riding on the left, facing the traffic, is dangerous. Riding in the middle of the lane blocks traffic and increases the risk of a collision.
