Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the photo, you are driving along a street in a town, and on the right there is sign F-19 "lane for specified vehicles", showing that the lane next to the right edge of the roadway is intended for bicycles. When driving a car straight on, you must not travel directly next to the right edge, because the cycle lane runs there. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign F-19 indicates a lane marked on the roadway intended for the vehicles shown on the sign, and the Road Traffic Act adds that a cycle lane is the part of the roadway intended for bicycle traffic. In a car, you drive in the lane next to it, and you enter the cycle lane only when the signs and markings allow it, for example just before a right turn, giving way to cyclists.
Legal basis: § 75 para. 4 of the Regulation on road signs and signals; Art. 2 point 5a of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
