Explanation
Anticipation when encountering cyclists and obstacles
- Practice **defensive driving**: assume the cyclist may make a **sudden movement** (swerving to avoid a pothole, losing balance, or due to crosswind).
- Maintain **constant attention**, **sufficient lateral clearance**, and adjust your **speed** to keep a reaction margin.
- Be ready to **brake** or **gently correct your course** without creating risks for others.
- Avoid **unnecessary use of lights** so as not to dazzle; use lights only when necessary to see and be seen.
