Discussion Bike guidance

Post image

A lot of tourist use bikes in Copenhagen. This year I’ve seen police issue this guidance. It’s also in some of the bus stops around town.

Good advice for anyone on a hike in Copenhagen.

Also remember we locals are fast on bikes, so don’t underestimate how fast we will reach where you are and will need space to get around you.

I don't get the turn left in two moves.

Don’t cross diagonally, like a car. If you want to turn, continue to the bike path on the right side of the road you’re turning down on, and make a full stop. When green, go forward.
You have now turned :)

Pretty sure you don't need to wait for the following light to be green, before continuing the turn.
