BDifficulty 3/5

Is it advisable to keep your passenger car travelling for a prolonged time alongside and very close to a motorcycle on a road?

Correct answer

No.

No. Maintaining that position restricts the motorcyclist’s safety space and increases risk if either vehicle changes course. Keep safe clearance and, if overtaking, follow overtaking and lateral-clearance rules. Specific rules for bicycles riding two abreast do not authorize a car to travel close alongside a motorcycle or create a general side-by-side exception for mopeds.
