What Should Drivers Pay Attention to When Overtaking?
1 Answers
Drivers should pay attention to safety confirmation, speed, and distance when overtaking. The specific considerations for drivers when overtaking are as follows: Safety First: Before overtaking, the driver should fully understand the acceleration performance of their vehicle. Ensure that components such as the horn, turn signals, and headlights are functioning properly. Choose a straight, wide road with good visibility, no obstacles on either side, and no oncoming vehicles within 150 meters ahead. Only proceed with overtaking when safety is guaranteed. Avoid blindly overtaking without considering subjective and objective conditions. Speed Consideration: When overtaking, try to increase the speed difference between the two vehicles as much as possible to reduce the overtaking distance and time, ensuring a quick completion of the maneuver. Distance Awareness: When overtaking a parked vehicle, lift the accelerator pedal to use the engine's drag resistance to decelerate, honk the horn more frequently, stay alert, increase the lateral distance from the parked vehicle, and be prepared to stop in case of emergencies.
