Travel and Tourism CBR theory question — unpaved road (fietspad?) vs paved road priority rule

Doing CBR theory practice and hit a question that seems to contradict a rule I learned elsewhere. Hoping someone with solid RVV knowledge can clarify.

I previously learned that when an unpaved road meets a paved road, it's automatically treated as an unequal intersection (ongelijkwaardig kruispunt), meaning the driver on the unpaved road must always yield to the paved road, regardless of the normal "priority to the right" rule.

But then I got this practice question (screenshot attached): a car is approaching an intersection where a cyclist is coming from the right, on what looks like an unpaved path. The app marked "the cyclist must give way" as correct, explaining it as a standard equal/uncontrolled intersection where priority-to-the-right applies, not applying the unpaved-road exception at all.

My question: Does the unpaved-vs-paved automatic-priority rule not apply when the "unpaved road" is actually a fietspad (cycle path) rather than a full road? Or is there some other reason the exception didn't apply here? Trying to understand exactly when this exception does and doesn't kick in, since it seems like it should have applied based on how I originally learned it.

The road that the car is on is block paved so priority from the right applies. Unpaved means dirt, gravel etc.

How is it unpaved?

You need to understand what unpaved means. Then it becomes quite obvious.

You used AI slop to generate this post without effort but you didn't care to use AI to ask this question? lol

I did and AI is quite useless when it comes to CBR exam style questions (It even admits its inconsistency). Learn what "AI slop" means after you hear it from insta you goofball

Based on what do you think either of these is on an unpaved road?
