Correct answer
No, travelling very slowly does not authorise that overtaking manoeuvre.
No. Article 87.1.b of the General Traffic Regulations prohibits overtaking at marked pedestrian crossings and nearby. The wording effective from 1 October 2026 removed the former sufficiently-low-speed exception. Article 88’s exceptional cases have specific conditions and do not provide that basis for overtaking any moving car. Always respect pedestrian priority and safety.
