BDifficulty 2/5

You complete a left-side overtake on a two-way road with one lane each way. What is the normal final phase?

Correct answer

Returning to the right-hand lane.

Return to the right-hand lane after passing, with enough clearance to avoid forcing the other driver to change course or speed abruptly. Check the return is safe and signal. Aborting and returning behind when you cannot safely complete the overtake is a different action from the final phase of a completed overtake.
