Questions Learners Have About A1 Parked Cars Safety

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising A1 Parked Cars Safety, including how questions match the official theory exam in the Netherlands, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is 'dooring' and how can A1 motorcyclists avoid it?

Dooring refers to a collision caused by a vehicle occupant suddenly opening their door into the path of an oncoming cyclist or motorcyclist. A1 riders can avoid this by maintaining a safe distance (a 'buffer zone') from parked cars, continuously scanning for activity inside vehicles, and being prepared to react.

What is the safest road position when riding next to parked cars?

The safest position is typically at least one meter away from the parked vehicles, or even further if space allows, creating a 'buffer zone'. This provides space to react if a door opens or a pedestrian steps out, and allows you to be seen better by other traffic.

Why is scanning so important when passing parked cars?

Scanning is crucial because it allows you to observe potential hazards before they become immediate dangers. Look for brake lights, exhaust fumes, people inside cars, or movement around the vehicles that might indicate an impending door opening or someone stepping into the road.

Are there specific Dutch traffic rules for passing parked cars on a motorcycle?

While there aren't specific distances mandated by law solely for motorcycles passing parked cars, general Dutch traffic law requires drivers to maintain sufficient distance to other road users and anticipate hazards. Safe riding practices covered in this set align with the principles of defensive driving promoted by the CBR.
