Overtaking another vehicle that is already overtaking, when is it prohibited?
Overtaking
Explanation
To overtake another vehicle that is already overtaking, it is crucial to have **sufficient visibility**. This is because:
- **Limited visibility**: Overtaking in situations where you cannot see clearly, such as on sharp curves, hill crests, or in adverse weather conditions (fog, heavy rain, sun glare), is prohibited. These conditions prevent you from correctly assessing traffic and potential hazards on the road.
- **Safe overtaking**: When a vehicle is already overtaking, you may need to enter the opposite lane to overtake it. If you cannot clearly see the entire road, this increases the risk of collisions with oncoming vehicles.
Therefore, it is essential to ensure there is **good visibility** before attempting to overtake a vehicle that is already in the process of overtaking. This ensures that the maneuver is carried out safely and without endangering other drivers.
