Right of way is to traffic coming from the right - a diamond shaped yellow sign means you have right of way.
*Remember that cycling routes are common and a cyclist going straight on has precedence at a right hand turn.
*In the East trams have the right of way.
*The ringroad is called the Berliner Ring.

Berliners enjoy cycling all-year round and the city accomodates cyclists by providing excellent cycle paths which isolate cyclists both from cars and from pedestrians.
You are also allowed to take your bicycle on the U- and S-Bahn, just check which train compartment has the bicycle sign and if anyone happens to be standing there they will usually make way for you and your bike.
Cycle paths are extensive in West Berlin but the Eastern half still needs to catch up and the standard of roads lags behind. With the amount of road and building work going on it can be a challenging ride!
Bikes need an underground ticket, too.
