Passing and overtaking
Passing is one of the riskier driving manoeuvres. The G1 test expects you to know where it is allowed and how to do it with a safe margin.
Key facts to remember
- ◆ Pass only when you can see far enough ahead to return safely to your lane.
- ◆ A solid yellow line on your side means you must not pass.
- ◆ Signal, check your blind spot, and pass on the left of the vehicle ahead.
- ◆ You may pass on the right only in limited cases, such as a one-way road.
- ◆ Never exceed the speed limit to complete a pass.
