How to Use Lights When Overtaking?
1 Answers
The method of using lights when overtaking is: 1. Before overtaking, increase the speed and approach the left side of the vehicle being overtaken, maintaining a following distance of no more than 20 meters, then turn on the left turn signal and honk the horn; 2. After confirming that the vehicle ahead has yielded or signaled to yield, steer to the left, maintain a certain lateral distance from the vehicle being overtaken, accelerate to overtake from the left side, and continue driving straight after overtaking. Once a safe distance of 20 to 50 meters beyond the overtaken vehicle is achieved, turn on the right turn signal and return to the original lane. Points to note when overtaking include: 1. Before overtaking, choose a road with good visibility, straight and wide, no obstacles on either side, and no oncoming vehicles within 200 meters ahead; 2. Never overtake when passing through critical sections such as intersections or sharp bends, or when the vehicle ahead signals a left turn, U-turn, or is overtaking another vehicle ahead.
