1 Answers
When overtaking on the highway, turn on the left turn signal. Overtaking should be done from the left side of the vehicle in front. After overtaking and maintaining a necessary safe distance from the overtaken vehicle, turn on the right turn signal and return to the original lane. According to Article 47 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, when overtaking, the driver should turn on the left turn signal in advance, switch between high and low beams, or sound the horn. Here is the relevant information about overtaking: Front vehicle: On roads without a center line or with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction, when the front vehicle receives an overtaking signal from the rear vehicle, it should reduce speed and give way to the right if conditions permit. Rear vehicle: After confirming there is sufficient safe distance, the rear vehicle should overtake from the left side of the front vehicle. After maintaining a necessary safe distance from the overtaken vehicle, turn on the right turn signal and return to the original lane.
