To perform an **overtaking maneuver** correctly, it is essential that it is **precise and without hesitation**. This is due to several important factors:

- **Preparation and Checking**: Before overtaking, it is essential to prepare adequately and ensure that conditions are safe. This includes making sure there are no oncoming vehicles and that the vehicle to be overtaken is not suddenly accelerating.

- **Increase in Speed**: During overtaking, the vehicle's speed should be increased, but without exceeding the maximum permitted limit. This helps to complete the maneuver quickly and safely.

- **Sufficient Space**: It is crucial to maintain an adequate distance from the vehicle being overtaken, especially if it involves mopeds, bicycles, or stationary vehicles. The minimum separation should be **one and a half meters**.

- **Completion of Overtaking**: Once the overtaking is completed, you should return to the original lane as soon as possible, using the indicator lights to signal the lane change, and without forcing other drivers to alter their speed.

Performing the maneuver in this way ensures that the overtaking is safe and efficient, avoiding dangerous situations and complying with traffic regulations.
