- Check your nearside mirror and blind spot to ensure no other cyclists are filtering on your leftCevap
- DFocus exclusively on vehicles emerging from the side road without scanning for cyclists filtering alongside your car
Cevap
You should hold back behind the cyclist until they have passed the junction, and check your nearside mirror and blind spot for filtering road users before making the turn.
According to the Highway Code, drivers must not cut across cyclists who are travelling straight ahead when turning into or out of a junction. Drivers should wait patiently behind the cyclist until they have cleared the junction and must check their nearside mirror and passenger-side blind spot to ensure no other cyclists are filtering on the left.
