Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C. Check your mirrors and watch for cyclists or pedestrians on the left.

The vehicle does not have a greater right-of-way than any other road user. As a driver you should pay particular attention to vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists and be aware that they are entitled to use the road in safety.
