“You may not overtake right before or on a level crossing [...] However, two-wheeled vehicles without a sidecar may be overtaken.” (Swedish Road Traffic Ordinance)
If the road is wide and visibility is good, it would not be safe or efficient if you were forced to break abruptly and drive at a snail’s pace behind the cyclist (and thus pass the hazardous railway crossing at a very low speed).
However, if the road is narrow and visibility is obstructed, you may not overtake according to other rules. But this question asks if it is generally allowed, which it is.
This is an example of one of the driving theory questions at Körtkortonline.se (also in theory tests in Arabic).
There is also a driving licence book online (2024).
