Should the Left Turn Signal Be Activated When Overtaking?

[MacAlan]

Overtaking requires activating the left turn signal. When overtaking, pass the vehicle ahead from its left side. After overtaking and maintaining a necessary safe distance from the overtaken vehicle, activate the right turn signal and return to the original lane. Functions of turn signals: 1. To indicate the turning direction to pedestrians or other vehicles; 2. To signal the direction for overtaking or lane changing; 3. When both left and right turn signals are activated simultaneously, it indicates an emergency situation to alert other vehicles. Precautions for using turn signals: 1. Activate the turn signal in advance when preparing to turn; 2. Use the left turn signal when overtaking and the right turn signal when returning to the original lane; 3. After activating the turn signal, observe pedestrians and oncoming vehicles before performing the maneuver; 4. When making a left turn or U-turn, check for any road prohibition signs before activating the turn signal.
