Is overtaking on the right allowed on a motorway?
Joining traffic
Explanation
On a **motorway**, overtaking must always be done on the **left side** of the vehicle you wish to overtake. This is a general rule to ensure safety and orderly traffic flow.
There are some exceptions where overtaking on the right is allowed, but these do not apply to motorways. For example, you can overtake on the right in urban areas with at least two lanes in the same direction, or when the vehicle to be overtaken is clearly signaling a left turn. However, these situations do not apply to motorways.
Therefore, on a motorway, **overtaking on the right is not allowed** under any circumstances. This rule helps to avoid confusion and accidents, ensuring that all drivers know what to expect from the vehicles around them.
