Visual explanation · Right turn

The cyclist moved while you waited

Question recap: You are waiting to turn right after losing sight of a cyclist.

Correct answer

Look right again before you cross the cycle lane.

Why this is correct

Your first look was useful, but it described an earlier moment. Waiting for a pedestrian gives the cyclist time to move beside the car.

Keep the car stable while checking the right side. Bring your attention back ahead before steering, and let straight-through traffic on the same road pass.
