ERTAIN of the rules for drivers of motor vehicles set out above also apply with some slight modification to pedal cyclists.

Study and observe them, and pay special attention to the rules headed "SPEED," "SIGNALS," "OVERTAKING," "CROSS ROADS," and "WHITE LINES."

Give warning of your approach whenever necessary.

Do not ride more than two abreast.

Make the passage of other traffic wishing to overtake you easier by getting into single file except on very broad roads.

Do not wobble about the road but ride as steadily as possible.

Do not ride close behind fast moving vehicles; leave enough space to allow for their slowing down or stopping suddenly.

[It is an offence under the Road Traffic Act without lawful authority or reasonable cause to take hold of a motor vehicle for the purpose of being towed.] 12
