Cevap

Stay back and give the cyclist sufficient space and time to turn.
Cyclists are vulnerable road users who often need to move into the centre of the lane to be clearly seen and safely position themselves for a right turn. The correct driving response is to drop back, stay patient, and provide sufficient space and time for them to finish their turn.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the dynamic hazard and the road user's intention.
Recognised that the cyclist is a moving hazard repositioning to turn right.
Cyclists need to occupy lane space to establish road presence and make turns safely.
2
Determine the defensive driving response.
Maintain a safe following distance and do not attempt to pass.
Patience and adequate space eliminate the risk of a sideswipe or collision during the turn.

Anahtar Kavram

Defensive driving and spatial awareness when interacting with turning cyclists as moving hazards.
