Question 134 in the bank

When are you forbidden to overtake another vehicle?

  1. In a two-way interurban road.
  2. When driving in a left-turn lane.
  3. When the vehicle on your right drives slow.
  4. Correct answer: When the other vehicle stops before an intersection or before a pedestrian crossing or before a railway crossing.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: When the other vehicle stops before an intersection or before a pedestrian crossing or before a railway crossing.

A vehicle that stops before an intersection, a pedestrian crossing or a railway crossing usually stops for a reason: pedestrians crossing, an approaching train or a duty to give way. The stopped vehicle hides that danger from you, so overtaking it is forbidden. On a two-way interurban road, overtaking is allowed when the road is clear and conditions permit.
