BDifficulty 2/5

When overtaking in a car outside a built-up area, which group must receive at least 1.5 metres of lateral clearance under the vulnerable-user protection rule?

Correct answer

Pedestrians, animals, animal-drawn vehicles, mopeds, personal mobility vehicles and cyclists.

Pedestrians, animals, animal-drawn vehicles, mopeds, personal mobility vehicles and cyclists, under current article 85.4. It does not include every motorcycle merely because it has two wheels. Use part or all of the adjoining or opposing lane, and change lanes completely where there is more than one per direction. Outside built-up areas reduce speed to at least 20 km/h below the road limit before starting and throughout the manoeuvre, without endangering oncoming users.
