You want to pass a bicyclist but oncoming traffic makes 4 feet of clearance impossible. What should you do?
- A.Honk and pass in the same lane
- B.Squeeze past with whatever space is left
- C.Wait behind the bicyclist until you can pass safely with at least 4 feet
- D.Cross onto the sidewalk to get around
Correct answer
C. Wait behind the bicyclist until you can pass safely with at least 4 feet
Why
Wait until traffic clears so you can give the bicyclist at least 4 feet. Pennsylvania requires that clearance, and rushing a close pass risks a serious crash.
