When passing a bicycle on the roadway, what should you remember?

  1. Flash your headlights

  2. Sound your horn

  3. Increase your following distance

  4. Move over to the left quickly

The correct answer is: Increase your following distance

Passing a bicycle on the roadway can be tricky, and it is important to remember to do so safely. Flashing your headlights or sounding your horn can startle the cyclist and potentially cause an accident. Quickly moving over to the left can also be dangerous as you may not have enough room to safely pass the cyclist. Instead, it is recommended to increase your following distance behind the bike and pass when it is safe to do so. This allows for more room and ensures the safety of both the cyclist and yourself.
