What are the differences between lane changing and overtaking?

[EverlyFitz]

The differences between lane changing and overtaking are: 1. Whether to change lanes: Overtaking must involve lane changing, while lane changing does not necessarily mean overtaking. 2. Different levels of danger: Overtaking is a relatively dangerous behavior that is unavoidable while driving, whereas lane changing is comparatively less dangerous. 3. Prohibition of overtaking: Overtaking is prohibited in many situations, and frequent overtaking is not encouraged. 4. Different definitions: Lane changing refers to the practice of changing from one lane to another while driving in the same lane as another vehicle, without affecting the normal driving of other vehicles. Overtaking means that a vehicle moves to the side of another vehicle and passes it from behind while traveling in the same direction.
