Are passes made between cyclists riding in a group considered overtaking?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

No. According to traffic regulations, cyclists riding in a group are considered a single mobile unit for right-of-way purposes. Consequently, changes in position or passing maneuvers performed among them within the group itself are not legally classified as overtaking. This means that the strict rules regarding lateral separation and signaling that would apply to overtaking another vehicle do not apply, although they must ride with caution to avoid collisions among themselves.
