In this scenario, while it's not against the rules to overtake cyclists at intersections, should you avoid doing so, as it might create a safety hazard due to limited visibility?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes, in this situation you should refrain from overtaking the cyclist. The photo shows a cyclist riding ahead of us and sign A-5 (junction of roads of equal importance), which marks an approaching junction with limited visibility. Although there is formally no ban on overtaking a cyclist at a junction, the limited visibility on both sides of the junction means that overtaking could create a road safety hazard.
