BDifficulty 2/5

Your proposed overtake would endanger a cyclist travelling in the opposite direction on the shoulder. May you proceed?

Correct answer

No, because it would endanger the cyclist.

No. Article 85.4 prohibits overtaking that endangers or obstructs oncoming cyclists, even on the shoulder. Keeping near an edge or promising extra care does not authorise a manoeuvre that remains dangerous. Wait until overtaking is safe and all other conditions are met.
