Is overtaking or lane changing allowed in tunnels?

[KayleeRose]

Tunnels do not allow overtaking or lane changing. Tunnels are special sections of highways. Compared to regular road sections, tunnels have poor lighting and limited space. If drivers do not comply with traffic regulations and change lanes or overtake at will, it can easily interfere with other vehicles and cause accidents, leading to traffic congestion, delays, or even secondary accidents. Precautions for driving in tunnels: 1. Do not use high beams: Most tunnels nowadays are equipped with lighting, which, although not very bright, is sufficient with low beams. High beams should never be used because tunnels are inherently narrow, making oncoming traffic stressful. High beams can instantly blind drivers of oncoming vehicles in this confined space. If an accident occurs in one vehicle, it could potentially disrupt the entire tunnel traffic. 2. Pay attention to light changes: When entering a tunnel, the surrounding space becomes darker, causing the pupils to contract to adapt to the dark environment. After driving in a tunnel for an extended period and approaching the exit, the bright light at the exit may appear as a blinding white light, temporarily impairing vision. During this brief adaptation period, remain calm and continue driving normally. As long as you stay composed, accidents can generally be avoided.
