Are bicycles allowed to travel on a dual carriageway (autovía)?
Highways and motorways
Explanation
Cyclists over 14 years old can ride on a dual carriageway, but they must do so only on the hard shoulder. This means they cannot use the main lanes of the dual carriageway, but must stay in the side space intended for slower or special vehicles.
It is important to note that this rule applies only to dual carriageways and not to motorways, where bicycles cannot circulate at all. Additionally, cyclists must be attentive to signs that may prohibit their circulation even on the hard shoulder.
Therefore, the correct option is that cyclists over 14 years old can ride on the hard shoulder of a dual carriageway, as long as there are no signs prohibiting it.
