GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 352 of 1208

Are there situations when the driver of the motor vehicle gives priority to the bicycle or to a vehicle with animal traction?

A no, the road legislation does not provide such situations;
B no, the drivers of motor vehicles always have priority;
C yes.

Explanation

Cyclists and the drivers of vehicles with animal traction, like the other traffic participants, must respect the traffic rules, the signs, the road markings and the signals of the traffic police officer to the same extent as the motor vehicles. For example, if a cyclist or a driver of a vehicle with animal traction is about to enter an intersection, coming from a priority road, encountering the sign “Priority road”, he will have priority over the motor vehicles coming from the non‑priority roads.

The correct answer is: C
