GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 497 of 1208

You are driving the blue car. Did you correctly begin overtaking the motorcycle?

A yes, because no vehicle is moving from the opposite direction;
B yes, because the motorcycle does not cross over the axis of the road;
C no, because the motorcycle is overtaking the truck.

Explanation

In the situation in the image, driving the blue car, you perform the overtaking maneuver incorrectly, because the drivers of the vehicles who perform the overtaking maneuver are obliged to make sure that the vehicle in front and the one behind have not signalled the intention of starting a similar maneuver.

Therefore, in the given situation you overtake incorrectly, because the motorcycle is already in the overtaking of the truck.

The correct answer is: C
