Explanation

Overtaking is performed, as a rule, on the left side of the overtaken vehicle. However, the vehicle that has signalled and has moved into position correctly for leaving the direction of travel to the left is overtaken on the right side, provided that the remaining space allows performing this maneuver.

We must take into account that enough space must be created to be able to overtake these vehicles on the right side, and if there is not enough space, it is not allowed to climb, even partially, onto the sidewalk.

The correct answer is: C

[...]
(5) Overtaking is performed only on the left side of the overtaken vehicle. The tram or the vehicle whose driver has signalled the intention and has moved into position correctly for leaving the direction of travel to the left is overtaken on the right side.
(6) The tram in motion may be overtaken also on the left side when the road is one-way or when there is not enough space between the right rail and the edge of the sidewalk.
