BDifficulty 1/5

At an ordinary junction of two paved roads, with no signs or officers regulating priority, a car goes straight ahead and a cyclist approaches from the car’s left. There is no cycle lane, cycle crossing or group of cyclists already crossing. Must the car give way to the cyclist on priority grounds?

Correct answer

No.

Not in this situation: the cyclist must give way to the car approaching from their right. Article 57’s general rule applies, with special cyclist-priority cases excluded. Having priority does not permit creating danger: observe the cyclist, adapt speed and avoid a collision.
