Correct answer
No, under the stated conditions they must overtake on the left.
No. As a general rule, overtake on the left. Exceptions must meet their specific conditions, such as a vehicle indicating a left turn or stopping on the left, or the marked-lane rule within built-up areas. There is no permission to overtake indiscriminately on the right or merely because the vehicle is heavy.
