May one motorcycle overtake another on a bend with limited visibility?
Overtaking
Explanation
To overtake one motorcycle with another on a curve with **reduced visibility**, it is important to follow certain rules to ensure safety:
- **Maintain the regulatory lateral separation**: When overtaking, it is crucial to leave a minimum distance of **one and a half meters** between the motorcycles. This ensures there is enough space to maneuver without the risk of collision.
- **Do not occupy the opposite lane**: On curves with limited visibility, it is essential not to invade the opposite lane. This prevents possible accidents with vehicles that may be coming from the opposite direction.
- **Road conditions**: Before overtaking, one must assess whether the road conditions allow for safe overtaking. If there is another vehicle coming from the opposite direction or the vehicle to be overtaken accelerates, it is better to desist from overtaking.
By following these guidelines, it is possible to overtake safely on a curve with reduced visibility, as long as the appropriate separation is maintained and the opposite lane is not invaded.
