BDifficulty 2/5

There is light fog, but visibility is sufficient to overtake or abandon the manoeuvre safely. All other rules are met and overtaking is not prohibited. Does fog alone prevent overtaking?

Correct answer

No, if those conditions are met, although extra care is required.

No, but take extra care. Seeing the nearby vehicle is insufficient: you need enough distance and visibility to complete or abandon the manoeuvre, observe signs and prohibitions, and avoid endangering others. If fog reduces that visibility, do not overtake. Care does not override an overtaking prohibition.
