Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: Allow the cyclist heading straight on to pass..
Do not overtake a cyclist as you approach a junction at which you are turning left. The cyclist might be continuing ahead. Cyclists are vulnerable road users and may be unstable in slow-moving traffic and at junctions. Give them more room.
