A cycle path crossing a road. The cars give way to cycles in both directions. This is short of Maria in Campislaan, which is parallel to the bike path on the left in this photo, by a car width so that one car at a time trying to pull out of the minor road can wait in the appropriate place.
I have crossed this junction on many occasions now and have yet to find a car that does not give way to me on a bike. They also will go out of their way to pull back not to obstruct you if they are in the way.
The photo is taken from an older 2.5 m wide single direction path but at the other side there is a 4 metre wide bidirectional path. Note the separate 2 metre footpath both sides of the crossing.
