To facilitate overtaking, what must the vehicle being overtaken do, as a general rule?
Overtaking
Explanation
To facilitate overtaking, the vehicle being overtaken must **keep to the right edge of the roadway**. This means it should position itself as close as possible to the right side of its lane, without encroaching on the shoulder. This action helps create more space for the overtaking vehicle to perform the maneuver safely and efficiently.
- **Do not drive in the center of the lane** when being overtaken, as this reduces the available space for the vehicle attempting to overtake.
- **Do not move onto the shoulder**, as this can be dangerous and is prohibited. The shoulder is not an area intended for driving, except in emergency situations.
Additionally, it is important that the vehicle being overtaken does not increase its speed during the overtaking and, if necessary, reduces speed to facilitate the maneuver, especially if a dangerous situation arises.
