How should a driver act when approaching other road users?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish as a fundamental rule that drivers must be able to control their vehicle at all times. When approaching other road users, especially if they belong to vulnerable groups (such as children, the elderly, people with disabilities, or cyclists), it is mandatory to take the necessary precautions to ensure their safety. This implies moderating speed and being prepared to stop if necessary, not only when a traffic light indicates it, but also in the face of any unforeseen event. Accelerating would increase the risk of running over someone or causing a collision.
