On a section with a solid line separating traffic directions, which of these road users may a car overtake using the opposing lane if it is safe and all required conditions are met?

Correct answer

Cyclists, under the required safety conditions.

Cyclists, under the Article 88 exception. Before passing, ensure there is no danger to them or opposing traffic. Leave at least 1.5 metres lateral clearance and occupy part or all of the adjacent or opposing lane; with more than one lane per direction, change lanes completely. Outside built-up areas, reduce speed to at least 20 km/h below the road limit before starting and throughout the manoeuvre, under Article 85 effective from 1 October 2026.
