AMDifficulty 3/5

As the general rule, with no exception allowing overtaking on the right, on which side is a vehicle ahead overtaken?

Correct answer

On the left, as a general rule.

On the left under article 82. Exceptions allow right-side overtaking with space and safety, including a vehicle clearly signalling a left turn or stop on that side, specified trams and the urban same-direction multi-lane case. Relative progress between rows or lanes may fall under article 83’s specific rules. Check that overtaking is permitted and safe.
