What type of lane must a cyclist use when vehicles are present?

  1. The left lane

  2. Any full lane

  3. The rightmost lane

  4. Any available lane

The correct answer is: The rightmost lane

Cycling etiquette typically dictates that cyclists should use the rightmost lane when vehicles are present. This is because the left lane is typically used for passing and may not provide enough room for a cyclist. While a cyclist could technically use any full lane, utilizing the rightmost lane is the safest and most courteous option. Additionally, using any available lane could lead to confusion and possibly endanger other drivers on the road. Therefore, the correct option is C, the rightmost lane.
