Overtaking
Explanation
To perform an overtaking maneuver safely, it is essential that **visibility is adequate**. This means you should not overtake in places where you cannot clearly see the road ahead.
- **Curves and hill crests**: In these situations, visibility is limited, making overtaking dangerous because you cannot see if another vehicle is coming in the opposite direction.
- **Adverse weather conditions**: Fog, heavy rain, or sun glare can significantly reduce visibility, making overtaking risky.
- **Behind another vehicle that is overtaking**: If you cannot see the road well or need to invade the opposite lane, it is not safe to overtake.
In summary, whenever visibility is insufficient, overtaking is prohibited, as it could endanger both the driver and other road users.
