GENERAL Learning Environment Category B (B, B1)
Question 865 of 1208

The maneuver of avoidance, by changing the direction of travel, of an obstacle located on your direction of traffic, followed by returning on the same direction, constitutes:

A bypassing;
B overtaking;
C emergency situation.

Explanation

Overtaking is the maneuver by which a vehicle passes in front of another vehicle or past an obstacle, located on the same direction of traffic, by changing the direction of travel and leaving the traffic lane or the line of vehicles in which it was initially. [OUG* Art. 45 paragraph (1)]

TO REMEMBER:

  1. Whether we want to pass in front of another vehicle located on the same direction, or we want to bypass an obstacle on the carriageway located on the same direction, it is still called overtaking;
  2. Whether we cross over the marking that separates the directions of traffic and enter the opposite direction, or we do not cross over the marking that separates the directions of traffic and remain on the same direction, it is still called overtaking.

Therefore, the maneuver of avoidance of an obstacle located on your direction of traffic, by changing the direction of travel, followed by returning on the same direction, is considered to be the overtaking maneuver.

The correct answer is: B
