While you are in a traffic jam, looking in your rear-view mirror you see a motorcyclist "snaking" past the stationary line of vehicles. What should you do?

In a traffic jam, allowing a motorcyclist to pass is generally the best course of action as it maintains safety and prevents potential accidents. According to German traffic regulations, vehicles must keep clear and allow others to maneuver safely, especially for smaller vehicles like motorcycles.

However, it is also important to be aware of the situation and not to obstruct or make sudden movements that could endanger the motorcyclist or yourself. Sounding your horn or taking other aggressive actions could escalate the situation unnecessarily and are not advisable.

Thus, the correct approach combines allowing the motorcyclist to pass while ensuring that your own actions do not pose a risk to anyone on the road. Understanding and adhering to these traffic rules contributes to overall road safety.
