What are the precautions when overtaking?

[McHenry]

Precautions when overtaking: 1. Forced overtaking is prohibited. If the vehicle ahead does not yield speed or lane due to certain reasons, forced overtaking is not allowed; 2. When there is insufficient safe distance in front of the vehicle ahead, do not forcibly squeeze in or force the overtaken vehicle to yield; 3. Maintain a smooth overtaking path when overtaking; 4. Change to the left lane in advance before overtaking, and delay returning to the right lane after overtaking, keeping the driving trajectory basically parallel to the vehicle ahead; 5. Always pay attention to maintaining the distance between your vehicle and the overtaken vehicle before, during, and after overtaking; 6. During the overtaking process, if an obstacle is found on the left side and the lateral distance is too small, which may cause a squeeze or scrape, quickly decelerate, abort the overtaking, and wait for another opportunity to overtake. However, use the service brake cautiously to prevent sideslip.
