Questions Learners Have About Overtaking Cyclists

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Overtaking Cyclists, including how questions match the official theory exam in Denmark, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is the general rule for lateral clearance when overtaking a cyclist in Denmark?

In Denmark, you must maintain a safe and sufficient lateral distance when overtaking a cyclist. While no exact measurement is universally specified, a minimum of 1.5 meters in urban areas and 2 meters outside urban areas is generally recommended to ensure safety, allowing for unexpected movements from the cyclist.

Can I overtake a cyclist on a narrow bridge in Denmark?

Overtaking on a narrow bridge is generally unsafe and often prohibited if it means you cannot maintain a safe lateral distance or if there isn't enough room for oncoming traffic. You must wait until it is safe to do so, even if it means driving behind the cyclist for a period.

How should I react to a faster e-bike rider when preparing to overtake?

E-bike riders can travel faster than traditional cyclists. When preparing to overtake, you must account for their higher speed, which means assessing the overtaking maneuver more carefully. Ensure you have ample time and space to complete the overtake without cutting them off, just as you would with a slower motor vehicle.

Is it always safe to overtake if there's no oncoming traffic?

No, the absence of oncoming traffic does not automatically make an overtaking maneuver safe. You must also consider the width of the road, the condition of the road surface, potential parked cars, junctions, and your ability to maintain sufficient lateral clearance from the cyclist at all times. If space is insufficient, you must wait.

What if a cyclist is riding two abreast? Can I still overtake?

According to Danish traffic law, two cyclists may ride side-by-side if there is sufficient space and it can be done without danger or undue inconvenience. However, if a signal is given for overtaking, cyclists should not ride side-by-side unless traffic conditions permit or necessitate it. As a driver, you must ensure you can safely overtake both cyclists, maintaining sufficient clearance from both, or wait until they single out, or the road widens.
