Innerhalb geschlossener Ortschaften (inside built-up areas), you must maintain a minimum side distance of 1.5 meters. Außerhalb geschlossener Ortschaften (outside built-up areas), the minimum distance is 2 meters.
No, you should avoid using your horn when overtaking horse riders. Sudden loud noises can startle horses, which is considered dangerous and can lead to serious accidents. Reduce your speed and give wide clearance.
Agricultural machinery can be wide and slow. You must ensure a clear line of sight for the entire overtaking manoeuvre and provide ample lateral distance. Be prepared for them to take up more road space than standard vehicles.
Generally, overtaking on the left is mandatory. However, if a queue of vehicles on the left lane is moving slowly (max 60 km/h) or stopped, vehicles on the right lane may proceed with caution and only slightly higher speed (max 20 km/h speed difference, or 20 km/h if the left lane is stopped).
Cyclists and horse riders are considered vulnerable because they lack the physical protection of a vehicle, making them more susceptible to serious injury in an accident. Drivers must exercise extra caution and maintain greater distances when interacting with them to ensure their safety.
