You want to leave a traffic-calming zone and begin driving along a road. Cyclists are approaching from the left. Who is required to wait?

You answered correctly. When leaving a traffic-calming zone (such as a "Spielstraße" or residential area), you must give way to all other road users, including cyclists, who are already on the road you want to enter. This is because vehicles leaving a traffic-calming zone must always yield to traffic on the main road, regardless of the direction from which other road users are approaching. This rule ensures that pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles on the main road have priority over those exiting the zone. This applies even if the main road does not have any specific right-of-way signs at that exit. So, you must wait and allow the cyclists coming from the left to go first.
