Correct answer
Two-wheeled motorcycles and three-wheeled vehicles assimilated to motorcycles.
R-405 requires riders of two-wheeled motorcycles and three-wheeled vehicles assimilated to motorcycles to use the carriageway at whose entrance it stands. Its current scope includes those assimilated vehicles, rather than only motorcycles without sidecars. It does not impose that duty on every two-wheeled vehicle or include mopeds under this rule. Other signs, access rules and safety requirements still apply.
