Correct answer

  • CSí, cuando mantenga la separación lateral reglamentaria y no ocupe el sentido contrario.Yes, if it keeps the required lateral distance and does not enter the opposite side of the road.
Explanation

Overtaking on bends with reduced visibility is prohibited, unless the two directions of traffic are clearly separated and the manoeuvre can be done without entering the opposite side of the road (Article 87 of the General Traffic Regulations). A motorcycle may overtake another within its own lane if, outside built-up areas, it leaves a lateral distance of at least 1.5 metres.
