GENERAL Learning Environment Category C (C, C1)
Question 262 of 533

Are cyclists and drivers of animal‑drawn vehicles obliged to always give priority?

A yes, because the travel speed is low;
B yes, if they travel on county or communal roads;
C no, if the road signalling does not provide this.

Explanation

Cyclists and drivers of animal‑drawn vehicles do NOT have the obligation to always give priority, they, like the other traffic participants, must respect the traffic rules, the signs, the markings and the signals of the traffic police officer to the same extent as the motor vehicles.

Therefore, if a cyclist or a driver of an animal‑drawn vehicle travels on a priority road, they do not have the obligation to give priority to the motor vehicles that travel on the non‑priority road. They will give priority only when the road signalling or the traffic rules provide this.

The correct answer is: C
