Which side is correct for overtaking?
1 Answers
Overtaking from the left side is correct. Overtaking from the left provides better visibility, as you only need to deviate slightly to the left to observe the road conditions ahead. Due to differences in driving styles, overtaking from the right can obstruct your view, compromising driving safety during the maneuver. When overtaking, accelerate and merge into the adjacent lane, then accelerate straight to pass the vehicle you intend to overtake until a safe distance is achieved before merging back into the original lane. The purpose of overtaking is to achieve faster passage. Overtaking refers to the process where a following vehicle merges into the lane behind and to the side of the leading vehicle, passes it, and then merges back into the original lane. The lane typically used for overtaking is the inner lane, which is closer to the center of the road and farther from the shoulder.
