Yes!!This may seem a silly extension of the question, but if say we are at a traffic light and it is green do they still have the right of way? Have been to Amsterdam before but as a flying tourist this is the first time we have driven over there.

"most traffic gives way to them"????the answer to your question is yes. As Geoff587 says the cyclist are a protected species and most traffic gives way to them - unlike this country where is seem no body takes any notice.

In some cities (e.g. The Hague) they have (or at least had when I still lived in Holland) a very dangerous (if you are not aware of it) arrangement of traffic lights, where right turning cars can have a green light, but straight on bikes on their bike paths will also have green. So, you might think it is safe to turn right, afterall your light is green, and plow straight into a bike!This may seem a silly extension of the question, but if say we are at a traffic light and it is green do they still have the right of way? Have been to Amsterdam before but as a flying tourist this is the first time we have driven over there.
