- Cyclists, when passing, keep a minimum of one metre where practical. Failing to do so carries a fine of $60 to $500 plus 2 demerit points. Before turning right, check mirrors and blind spots for cyclists.
- Pedestrians, stop completely at marked pedestrian crossings and crossovers. Treat a ball bouncing into the road as a sign a child or animal may follow. Be extra careful around vision-impaired pedestrians, who rely on engine sound and may not hear a quiet vehicle.
- Motorcycles, they have the right to use the whole lane. A motorcycle's turn signal may not cancel automatically, so confirm the rider is actually turning before you proceed.
- Being passed, slow down to let the other vehicle complete the pass safely.
- Bus bays, use the left-turn signal when re-entering the traffic lane from a bus bay.
- Slow-moving vehicles, farm machinery displays an orange and red slow-moving vehicle sign; stay well back.
🧠 Memory hook: "One metre for a cyclist; the whole lane for a motorcycle." Give bikes space and motorcycles their lane.
Recall: How much space must you leave when passing a cyclist? Which signal do you use to leave a bus bay?
