You are driving a vehicle that approaches the cyclist in the picture from behind. What risk might be posed by the cyclist ?

1. There is no risk. Pass the cyclist quickly.
2. Correct answer: The cyclist might pull onto the roadway or otherwise trip and fall into it.
3. The cyclist rides on the sidewalk (pavement) and therefore the bicycles pose no risk.
4. The cyclist is an adult and poses no risk.

WhyThe cyclist may swerve onto the roadway or fall into it. Neither age nor the sidewalk protects against that.
