Question

Raj was cycling to the market. Along the route, he saw a traffic sign in which a cycle was drawn within a red circle, with a bar drawn across it.

What should Raj do now?

• A. Stop cycling, as the route is not meant for cyclists.
• B. Keep cycling, as the route is meant for cyclists.
• C. Get off and walk on the footpath, moving the cycle along.
• D. Keep cycling if other cyclists are also moving.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

The correct options are
A Stop cycling, as the route is not meant for cyclists.
C Get off and walk on the footpath, moving the cycle along.

Traffic signs drawn in a red circle are regulatory signs. In order to ensure the safety of cyclists, certain roads, which are meant for fast moving vehicles are prohibited for cyclists. So, Raj should not use routes where this sign has been installed.
