Question 1 of 47

When can you overtake on the left?

Answer

  • When you want to go straight ahead & the driver in front of you has moved out & signalled that they intend to turn right.
  • When you have signalled that you intend to turn left.
  • When traffic in both lanes is moving slowly & traffic in the left-hand lane is moving more quickly than the traffic in the right-hand lane.
