Correct answer
At least 1.5 metres.
At least 1.5 metres from the overtaken motorcycle’s outermost parts. This case follows Article 85(5), the specific rule for a two-wheel vehicle driver overtaking another vehicle outside built-up areas. Do not confuse it with Article 85(4), which covers cyclists and mopeds among others. Overtaking must also be safe and obey limits and signs.
