BDifficulty 1/5

Why is the overtaking manoeuvre more dangerous at night?

Correct answer

Because it requires an increase in speed and poor visibility at night makes us reduce it.

The overtaking manoeuvre will always be more dangerous at night, since the lack of visibility and light on the road, together with the increase in speed required, may mean that our vision is not as clear as during daylight hours and that we may collide more easily.
