What does a sign with a picture of a bicycle indicate?

Bike lane ahead.
Bicycles prohibited on the road.
Bike rental available in the area.
Yield to bicycles.

The correct answer is: Bike lane ahead.

A sign depicting a bicycle indicates that there is a bike lane ahead. This type of sign is intended to inform drivers that they are approaching a designated lane specifically for the use of cyclists, promoting the safety and convenience of bike riders. Such lanes are typically marked to separate bicycle traffic from motor vehicle traffic, enabling both to coexist on the road in a safer manner. Understanding the purpose of bike lanes is essential for all road users. It encourages more people to consider cycling as a mode of transportation, which can lead to reduced traffic congestion and lower emissions. Recognizing these signs helps ensure that drivers yield appropriate respect to cyclists and increases overall road safety.
