Under what circumstances is overtaking allowed?
1 Answers
It is best to overtake when traffic is relatively light and the surrounding environment is open. During normal driving, pay attention to the distance between the vehicle in front and behind. When the adjacent lane is clear, you can proceed with overtaking. If there are no vehicles behind, you can downshift and then change lanes to overtake. On highways, be sure to control the braking force and preferably honk to alert the vehicle ahead, allowing large trucks to slow down gradually before overtaking. On relatively flat roads with good surface conditions, overtaking should be based on the vehicle's condition. When overtaking, correctly judge the dynamics of the vehicle being overtaken, be aware of the traffic situation ahead, and anticipate whether sudden situations might cause the vehicle to swerve outward. Overtaking should always be done from the left side.
