BDifficulty 2/5

In a built-up area, a carriageway has two lanes for the same direction, separated by longitudinal markings. With enough space and no danger, is overtaking on the right permitted?

Correct answer

Yes, if those conditions are met and it can be done safely.

Yes, under article 82.3. Check that it is safe and signal any lateral movement. Having enough space alone does not permit right-side overtaking on every road. Article 82.2 includes other cases, such as a vehicle ahead clearly indicating a left turn or left-side stop when the conditions are met; the urban exception is not the only possible one.
