Road Signs
Two chevrons painted above a bicycle symbol on the pavement (a sharrow) indicate:
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. The lane is shared between vehicles and bicycles
Sharrows tell drivers that cyclists are expected in the travel lane and have equal right to use it. Drivers should reduce speed when overtaking, maintain a 1 m side clearance at ≤50 km/h, and 1.5 m at higher speeds.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A.The lane is for bicycles onlyA bicycle-only lane uses a solid painted bike symbol without chevrons, plus 'BIKE LANE' signage.
- C.The lane ends in a bicycle laneLane-ending uses lane-end warning signs, not pavement sharrows.
- D.Vehicles must stop for a bike path'Stop for bike path' is not a standard Ontario rule; sharrows indicate shared use, not a stop condition.
