Question

If there is no designated bike lane, where is the appropriate place to ride one's bicyle?

• A. On the footpath so that vehicles don't get obstructed.
• B. Along the edge line of the roadway in the same direction as the traffic.
• C. Along the edge line of the roadway facing oncoming traffic.
• D. Wherever space is available between lanes.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Along the edge line of the roadway in the same direction as the traffic.

If there is no designated bike lane, one should ride their bicycle along the edge of the roadway in the same direction as the traffic. Even if you are riding a cycle, you have to follow the traffic rules meant for other two-wheelers. The footpath is meant for pedestrians, and should ideally be avoided by cyclists.
