South Australia · Learner's Theory Test · Road rules

You want to pass a cyclist, but there is a double continuous centre line. Are you allowed to cross it?

The answer

Yes, if you have a clear view of approaching traffic and it is safe to do so Correct
Only if the cyclist waves you through
Only between sunrise and sunset
No, never

Why that's the answer

Drivers may cross a continuous centre line, including a double line, to pass a cyclist at a safe distance, but only when it is safe and the driver has a clear view of any approaching traffic. If it is not safe, wait behind the cyclist.
