A bicycle, also called a cycle or bike, is a human-powered, pedal-driven, single-track vehicle, having two

wheels attached to a frame, one behind the other. A bicycle rider is called a cyclist, or bicyclist.

Mixing pedestrians and cyclists on narrow sidewalks where cyclists can't reroute is a recipe for
collisions. In normal conversation, a bicycle is a vehicle because it is a machine used to move people or
cargo. From a legal perspective, whether or not a bicycle is considered a vehicle depends on local law

A vehicle (from Latin: vehiculum) is a machine that transports people or cargo. Typical vehicles include
wagons, bicycles, motor vehicles (motorcycles, cars, trucks, buses), railed vehicles (trains, trams),
watercraft (ships, boats), aircraft and spacecraft.

The most common model of vehicle in the world, the Flying Pigeon bicycle.

Cargo

All articles, goods, materials, merchandise, or wares carried onboard an aircraft, ship, train, or truck, and
for which an air waybill, or bill of lading, or other receipt is issued by the carrier. It includes livestock, but
usually does not include bunkers (fuel for powering the vessel or vehicle), accompanying baggage, vessel
or vehicle's equipment and spare parts, mail, and stores. Personnel carried onboard are classified as
crew or passengers.

Elevated structures such as railways, flyovers, bridges and footbridges shall comply with the latest
minimum vertical clearance requirement of the Department of Public Works and Highways.

DPWH Secretary Rogelio L. Singson has issued Department Order (D.O.) No. 53, series of 2016, updating
the standard vertical clearance above overhead structure to ensure sufficient clearance of tall vehicles
passing underneath roadways.
Under D.O. 53, vertical clearance above the roadway shall not be less than 4.88 meters over the entire
roadway width to which an allowance of 0.15 meter shall be added for future additional road surfacing.

Pedestrian footbridges over roads on the other hand shall be 0.30 meter greater than the vertical
clearance to reduce the risk of truck impact against pedestrian bridges which have low load capacity.

Minimum vertical clearance shall also be provided below the coping at locations where portion of the
carriageway is underneath the coping (e.g., intersections, U-turn slots) to allow safe passage of vehicles.

The clear height/headroom between the pedestrian bridge walking surface and the bottom of the girder
of the structure above it shall not be less than 2.0 meters.

A passenger car is a road motor vehicle, other than a motor cycle, intended for the carriage of
passengers and designed to seat no more than nine persons (including the driver)

The term "passenger car" therefore covers microcars (smallest automobile) , taxis and hired passenger
cars, provided that they have fewer than ten seats. This category may also include pick-ups.
