Question 28 in the bank

When is it permitted to overtake, in one go, two vehicle that are driving before you on your lane

  1. Only on highways.
  2. Correct answer: When overtaking is not prohibited, and when the overtaking can be safely completed.
  3. This type of overtaking is absolutely prohibited by law.
  4. Only when overtaking two private passenger cars.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: When overtaking is not prohibited, and when the overtaking can be safely completed.

The law has no special ban on passing two vehicles in a single manoeuvre. It is allowed when no overtaking prohibition applies, such as a sign or a solid centre line, and when there is enough clear road and visibility to finish and return to your lane safely. Such an overtake takes longer, so check carefully for oncoming traffic. The type of road or of the vehicles being passed is not what matters.
