Question 30 of 1208

What obligations do you have when you notice that you are about to be overtaken by another motor vehicle?

A to reduce the travelling speed;
B to not increase the travelling speed;
C to drive as close as possible to the right edge of the carriageway or of the lane on which you are travelling.

Explanation

For answer  A 

The road legislation does not oblige you to reduce the travelling speed in the situation in which you are overtaken by another motor vehicle. There is no legal article that obliges you to do this. You must not confuse this with the situation in which during the night, when approaching another vehicle which moves from the opposite direction, you are obliged to reduce the travelling speed and to use the dipped-beam headlights.


For answers  B  and  C 

When you notice that you are about to be overtaken by another motor vehicle, you are obliged to not increase the travelling speed and to drive as close as possible to the right edge of the carriageway or of the lane on which you are travelling.
