AMDifficulty 3/5

When joining a road on a moped from an access, with no officer’s instruction requiring otherwise, must you give way to vehicles already travelling on that road?

Correct answer

Yes, give way and check that joining is safe.

Yes. Article 72 requires checking that joining is safe and giving way to vehicles on the road. Signal and wait for a safe opportunity; an indicator grants no priority. Other drivers must facilitate joining as far as possible under article 73, but this does not remove your duty to give way or permit forcing others to brake abruptly.
