TabúTransporte públicoNetherlands
Netherlands: cycle paths are not footpaths
- Before crossing, look for bicycles and e-bikes first — they have priority over cars
- Use pedestrian crossings
- Standing or walking on a cycle path
Traffic on cycle paths is fast; crossing outside a pedestrian crossing can bring a fine.
