Should you expect bicycle traffic beyond the warning sign visible in the foreground?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo, a tram is approaching a place where the tracks cross the roadway; in the foreground, next to the tracks, there is sign A-24 "cyclists", and temporary barriers can be seen nearby. Beyond this warning sign, you should expect cyclist traffic - the answer is YES.
Sign A-24 warns of a place where cyclists ride onto the roadway or cross it, for example from a cycle path. Like every warning sign, it requires you to exercise particular caution - this also applies to the tram driver. A cyclist may ride onto the tracks just in front of the tram, misjudging its speed, and a bicycle wheel easily gets caught in the rail groove, causing a fall. That is why you reduce speed, watch the cycle path and are ready to stop the tram.
