A vehicle is driving in the left lane. Is it permitted to overtake it on the right side?
Overtaking
Explanation
To overtake a vehicle on the right side, it is important that certain specific conditions are met. One of these conditions is that **the road is within a locality** and that **the lanes are well marked**. This means there must be at least two lanes in the same direction, separated by a white line painted on the ground. In this context, overtaking on the right is allowed.
On the other hand, outside of these conditions, overtaking must be done on the left side, except in exceptional situations such as overtaking a tram or when the vehicle you wish to overtake is signaling a left turn. Therefore, the correct answer is that you can overtake on the right, but only when the lanes are well marked and the road is within a locality.
