Who can use a lane meant for vehicular traffic?

The option indicating that cyclists and mopeds can use a lane meant for vehicular traffic when they do not have their own lane is correct. This is based on road safety rules which often permit vulnerable road users, such as cyclists and moped riders, to share the roadway with motor vehicles in the absence of dedicated lanes.

In many jurisdictions, including Belgium, the traffic regulations recognize that cyclists and mopeds face safety concerns when they have to navigate alongside faster-moving vehicles. Therefore, allowing them to use general lanes is a measure to ensure their presence on the road is legally supported when specific provisions are not available. This helps in maintaining a flow of traffic while also prioritizing the safety of all road users.

Understanding these nuances and regulations supports not only safe driving practices for motorists but also fosters cooperation and understanding among different types of road users.
