Correct answer

on stretches of road where overtaking is prohibited.

As a general rule, changing direction is prohibited on stretches of road where overtaking is prohibited. This rule applies to ensure road safety and prevent dangerous manoeuvres on roads and streets. In addition to the prohibition on stretches where overtaking is not permitted, there are other places and situations where changing direction is also prohibited: when there is insufficient visibility to carry out the manoeuvre safely, such as on bends and changes of gradient with reduced visibility, or when weather or environmental conditions reduce visibility; in tunnels, underpasses and other stretches marked with the “tunnel” sign (S-5); at level crossings; at pedestrian crossings, at intersections with cycle tracks and in the vicinity of both.
