Is overtaking allowed on motorways?
Overtaking
Explanation
Overtaking is a maneuver allowed on both **motorways** and **dual carriageways**. There is no specific restriction prohibiting overtaking on motorways, as long as general safety and visibility rules are followed.
- On motorways and dual carriageways, you must overtake on the **left side** of the vehicle you intend to overtake, except for some specific exceptions.
- It is important to ensure that visibility conditions are adequate and that there are no dangerous situations, such as sharp bends or blind summits.
- The driver being overtaken must facilitate the maneuver by keeping to the right of the lane and not increasing speed.
Therefore, overtaking is a common and permitted practice on both types of roads, as long as it is done safely and in compliance with traffic regulations.
