GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 796 of 1208

Is the overtaking allowed in the given situation?

A yes, because the axis of the road is marked with a continuous line;
B yes, because the broken line is the closest to your direction of travel;
C no, because the motor vehicle in front does not allow you the overtaking.

Explanation

In this situation you intend to overtake the car that moves in front of you. The longitudinal marking separating the directions of travel is formed of a continuous line and a broken one next to each other, a situation in which you must respect the meaning of the line that is the closest in the direction of travel. The closest line in this situation is the broken one, a line that allows crossing over it.

Therefore, in the given situation you are allowed performing the overtaking maneuver because the longitudinal marking allows you the crossing over it and from the opposite direction no other vehicle approaches.

The correct answer is: B
