The moped is leaving a parking area to join the road on which the car is already travelling. Does this give the moped priority over the car?

Correct answer

No; the moped must give way when joining.

No. The joining driver must ensure the manoeuvre is safe and give way to vehicles already on the road. The car must help the manoeuvre as far as possible, but that cooperation does not give the moped priority or permit it to pull out forcing the car to brake or swerve. The special requirement to stop if needed for a bus leaving a signposted stop within a built-up area should not be transferred to this situation.
