Will overtaking at an intersection result in penalty points?
1 Answers
Overtaking at an intersection will result in a deduction of 3 points. Below are precautions for overtaking with a vehicle: 1. Observe vehicle conditions: Before overtaking, observe the road conditions ahead and try to choose a flat, straight road. Also observe the situation of the lane you intend to use by checking the left rearview mirror for any vehicles approaching from behind. 2. Light usage: Turn on the left turn signal, alternate between high and low beams, and sound the horn to alert the vehicle in front. Confirm that the vehicle ahead signals to yield before turning left. 3. Lane usage: When using the adjacent lane for overtaking, downshift and press the accelerator deeply. The reason for downshifting is that it provides faster throttle response during acceleration, allowing quicker speed increase.
