Bicycle Street (Cars as Guests): What Are the Rules?

Speed limit in the bicycle street

The bicycle street is not a formal road category in the law, but is usually located in a 30 km/h zone. This is therefore the maximum speed. You must adjust your speed to the cyclists, who are the primary users here.

Overtaking in a bicycle street

As a motorist, you are in principle allowed to overtake in a bicycle street, unless this is prohibited by other rules (such as a solid line or safety). In practice, however, it is often too narrow or unsafe to overtake cyclists, so stay calmly behind them.

Parking in the bicycle street

Normal rules apply to parking. If it is a 30 km/h zone inside a built-up area, you may park where there is no prohibition. Make sure you do not hinder cyclists when getting out or driving away.
