Question 5058
On the road, when may you pass on the right?
- When driving on a roadway with more than two lanes.
- When the right lane is clear.
- When the vehicle ahead is going to turn left and there is clear space on the roadway.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the vehicle ahead is going to turn left and there is clear space on the roadway.
Outside built-up areas, you must pass on the left, and passing on the right is allowed only in specific cases. One is when the vehicle ahead clearly signals that it is going to turn left or stop on that side, and there is enough room on the roadway, as with the red passenger car in the image, which has its left turn signal on. Having more lanes or seeing that the right lane is clear is not enough.
