Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
A travel lane is too narrow for a bicycle and motor vehicle to travel safely side by side. What should the motor driver expect?
Blue A follows cyclist B in a narrow lane. Silver C approaches in the opposing lane.
Correct answer: The rider may use more of the lane, so wait for a safe chance to pass.
Why
Do not squeeze alongside a cyclist where the lane is too narrow for a safe pass. Wait for enough room to pass with at least 3 feet of clearance and no oncoming danger. A cyclist has applicable roadway rights and may use the travel lane rather than a designated bike lane.
