You are approaching a curve with limited visibility where the two directions of traffic are clearly separated. Are you allowed to overtake a vehicle in these circumstances?
Overtaking
Explanation
To overtake on a **curve with reduced visibility** on a two-way road, it is important to follow certain rules to ensure safety.
- **Prohibited overtaking on curves**: Generally, overtaking is prohibited on curves where visibility is limited. This is because you cannot clearly see if a vehicle is coming from the opposite direction, which increases the risk of collision.
- **Conditions for overtaking**: However, overtaking is allowed in these circumstances **as long as you do not invade the opposite lane**. This means you can overtake a vehicle if you can do so within your own lane, without crossing the line that separates the two directions of traffic.
- **Safety when overtaking**: It is crucial to ensure there is enough space to perform the maneuver without endangering other drivers. If it is not possible to overtake without invading the opposite lane, then the maneuver should not be attempted.
In summary, on a curve with reduced visibility, you can overtake only if you can do so without crossing into the opposite lane, always keeping safety as a priority.
