Cars can move into bicycle lanes
- to turn right ✓
- to pass
- to park
- when bicycles aren't using them
Answer: A. to turn right
Cars may move into a bicycle lane to turn right, but not to use it as a travel or parking lane.
Why this is the answer
The handbook says bicycle lanes are reserved for cyclists, but it also says drivers sometimes need to cross a bicycle lane to turn right or pull to the side of the road. When you do that, signal well ahead, yield to cyclists, and take extra care. The same passage forbids driving, stopping, or parking in a bicycle lane, so the exception is for crossing to turn right, not for ordinary driving.
Why the other answers are wrong
- B. to pass — The handbook does not list passing as a reason to enter a bicycle lane; it reserves the lane for cyclists.
- C. to park — The handbook specifically says you must not stop or park in a bicycle lane.
- D. when bicycles aren't using them — A bicycle lane is reserved for cyclists, so the rule does not change just because no bicycle is using it at that moment.
Remember it
Cross a bike lane to make a right turn; don't treat it as a driving, passing, or parking lane.
