BDifficulty 2/5

Under comparable conditions, when can reduced visibility make overtaking more difficult and dangerous?

Correct answer

At night, because visibility is reduced.

At night. Low light can make it harder to judge other vehicles’ distance and speed, detect obstacles and assess space to complete overtaking. Do not overtake with insufficient visibility. Observe speed limits and avoid dazzling. There is no rule that every night-time overtake is more dangerous than every daytime one; road, traffic, weather and driver condition also matter.
