Correct answer
Yes.
According to Article 36.3 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC): It is strictly prohibited to overtake vehicles required to use the hard shoulder, such as animal-drawn vehicles, if the time for which the two vehicles travel alongside each other exceeds 15 seconds or the distance travelled exceeds 200, except for bicycles. The option “Yes, provided that… 200 m or 15 s” is incorrect because that limit does not apply to bicycles.
