A narrow street has an advisory bicycle lane marked with dashed boundaries. If using that space becomes necessary, what must a motorist do first?
Blue car A travels east in the narrow central motor space. Cyclist B rides east ahead of A along the right advisory edge lane. White dashed boundaries separate advisory edge lanes from the central space; there is no painted center line.
Correct answer: Yield to bicyclists and enter only when the movement is safe.
Why
Advisory bicycle lanes use dashed boundaries where there is limited road width. Motor vehicles may use the space when necessary, but must yield to bicyclists first and avoid an unsafe conflict. Do not confuse this design with an unrestricted extra travel lane.
