Question 1747 in the bank

It prohibited to overtake before a pedestrian crossing:

  1. Correct answer: Always.
  2. Only on a non-urban road.
  3. Only on a two-way urban road.
  4. Only when a “pedestrian crossing ahead” sign is placed.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Always.

Overtaking before a pedestrian crossing is always prohibited, on any type of road, urban or non-urban, and whether or not a warning sign is posted. The vehicle being overtaken can hide a pedestrian stepping onto the crossing, leaving the overtaking driver no time to see them and stop. Near a crossing, stay in your lane, slow down and be ready to give way to pedestrians.
