You drive a lorry over 3,500 kg MAM. While this sign’s prohibition is in force, may you overtake a motorcycle travelling on the carriageway?

Correct answer

No, the sign prohibits that lorry from doing so.

No. R-306 prohibits lorries over 3,500 kg MAM from overtaking motor vehicles, even without entering opposing traffic. A motorcycle is a motor vehicle and the current catalogue does not retain the old two-wheeled motorcycle exception. Completing the manoeuvre quickly does not authorize it.
