Is passing stationary vehicles considered overtaking?
Overtaking
Explanation
The **overtaking** refers to the maneuver of passing other vehicles that are in motion and moving more slowly. However, when it comes to **immobilized vehicles**, such as those stopped due to a breakdown or an accident, the act of passing them is not considered overtaking. This is because overtaking implies that both vehicles are in motion, and in the case of immobilized vehicles, this condition is not met.
- **Passing immobilized vehicles** is not classified as overtaking because these vehicles are not in motion. Therefore, the overtaking regulations that govern passing moving vehicles do not apply.
- In situations where a vehicle is stopped due to a breakdown or accident, passing by this vehicle is not considered overtaking, but simply a maneuver to continue the journey.
Therefore, the correct answer is that **passing immobilized vehicles is not** considered overtaking.
