We are talking about the right to yield if someone is about to cross in a crosswalk in order to avoid causing an accident.
The obligation of vehicles to yield at crosswalks is not an obligation to make an effort.
Bicycles are light vehicles, so they should pass on the left side of the roadway, with the exception of sidewalks, where pedestrians have priority.
