Driving on a two-way road, can we overtake on the right a tram travelling in the centre?
A)No, overtaking on the right is forbidden.
B)No, because the tram has priority.
C)Yes, because the road has two directions of traffic.Correct
As a general rule, overtaking must be done on the left. Exceptionally, overtaking on the right is allowed:
- When the driver of the vehicle being overtaken is clearly indicating their intention to change direction to the left or to stop on that side, provided there is space to do so safely. (Photo 1)
- On two-way roads, with regard to trams travelling in the central area. (Photo 2)
- Within built-up areas, on roadways with at least two lanes reserved for traffic in the same direction, delimited by longitudinal markings. (Photo 3)
