Correct answer
particular care must be taken, as spray can obstruct your view.
Spray can hide the road, so take extra care and ensure enough visibility to complete the manoeuvre. Keep clearance, adapt speed and use wipers and demisting as appropriate. Do not overtake if you cannot see what is necessary. There is no general requirement to wait for fully dry pavement, and dryness would not guarantee a safe or lawful overtake.
