Occupying the lane when overtaking does not result in point deduction but incurs a fine. Below are precautions for overtaking: Observe traffic conditions: Before overtaking, observe the road conditions ahead and try to choose a flat and straight road. Check the situation of the lane to be borrowed, and observe from the left rearview mirror whether there is a vehicle behind attempting to overtake. Before overtaking, turn on the left turn signal and honk the horn to indicate your intention. At night, continuously switch the headlights to signal. If there is a vehicle behind attempting to overtake, wait until it completes the overtaking maneuver before proceeding with your own. Light usage: When conditions for overtaking are met, turn on the left turn signal, then alternately switch between high and low beams while honking the horn to alert the vehicle ahead. Once you confirm that the vehicle ahead has signaled to yield, you can steer to the left. Driving in the borrowed lane: If already in the borrowed lane, downshift and press the accelerator deeply to increase engine RPM and enhance power. The reason for downshifting is that when accelerating, downshifting and pressing the accelerator provide a quicker response, enabling faster acceleration.
