Correct answer
A gust may change their path unexpectedly.
A gust may change their path: allow sufficient margin and wait if a safe overtake is impossible. Article 85.4 requires at least 1.5 metres and occupying part or all of the adjacent/opposing lane; with multiple lanes per direction, a complete lane change is required. Outside built-up areas, from 1 October 2026, travel at least 20 km/h below the road’s limit before and throughout the overtake. This does not guarantee safety: do not endanger or obstruct oncoming users, including those on the shoulder. The horn does not force a cyclist aside.
