How the exam asks it

Watch the muted ~5 s clip: you approach a junction with a cycle path. Tap HAZARD! the moment you see the hazard develop, then choose what you do at the frozen frame: brake, release the accelerator or nothing?

Hazard perception: a cyclist crossing on the intersecting cycle path (RVV 1990 art. 15 lid 1 / art. 80 (haaientanden)).

  1. Brake
  2. Release the accelerator
  3. Nothing
Show the answer

Correct answer: Brake

Correct choice: brake — a cyclist crossing on the intersecting cycle path (5.7 m away, ~0.8 s to contact) is in your path; releasing the accelerator or doing nothing leaves too little room.

Why learners get this wrong: Releasing the accelerator is not enough here: a cyclist crossing on the intersecting cycle path — 5.7 m away, ~0.8 s to contact. Only braking keeps you clear of the hazard (stop within the distance you can see to be clear).

Show the answer

Correct answer: Release the accelerator

Correct choice: release the accelerator — a cyclist swerving from the cycle lane into the carriageway (6.5 m away, ~4.3 s to contact) is developing beside or ahead of you: keep space, be ready to brake, no hard braking.

Why learners get this wrong: Hard braking is excessive here: a cyclist swerving from the cycle lane into the carriageway is not in your path yet (6.5 m away, ~4.3 s to contact). Releasing the accelerator keeps space and avoids being hit from behind.

About Vulnerable cyclists, moped-scooters and mopeds: which statement is WRONG?

  1. CBR teaching material/Driving procedure B - a cyclist beside or behind-right of you can disappear into the blind spot; look separately over your shoulder just before turning, not only in the mirror beforehand.
  2. Every hearing-impaired cyclist has a sign on the back of the bicycle, so without a sign you do not need to account for hearing impairment.
  3. A moped-scooter may ride at most 25 km/h, both in town and outside it — one fixed figure, not the 30/40/45 distinction that applies to the moped.
  4. Electric cyclists often ride noticeably faster than ordinary cyclists, and cyclists with heavy bags or children in child seats are less stable.
