If the maneuver can be carried out without risk, is it permitted to overtake the cyclists in the image?
Overtaking
Explanation
Overtaking cyclists: distance and use of the opposite lane
- Maintain a minimum lateral clearance of **1.5 meters** on roads and highways outside urban areas.
- To ensure this distance, it is permitted to **cross a continuous line** and **occupy part or all of the opposite lane**.
- Essential condition: do it **without risk**, with sufficient visibility, and without causing other users to perform dangerous maneuvers.
Under these conditions, overtaking is legal even if you must occupy the opposite lane.
