Correct answer
Overtaking motor vehicles by entering the area reserved for opposing traffic.
R-305 prohibits overtaking motor vehicles when the manoeuvre involves entering the area reserved for opposing traffic, in addition to general overtaking prohibitions. The current definition does not contain the former specific motorcycle exception. The signed prohibition ends at the next R-502 (end of overtaking prohibition) or R-500 (end of prohibitions); other rules still apply.
