Correct answer
- CNo.No.
As a general rule, overtaking must be done on the left. Exceptionally, we may overtake on the right: - When the driver of the vehicle we want to overtake is clearly signalling that they intend to stop or turn left, if there is enough space to do so. - On two-way roads, when overtaking trams running in the centre of the carriageway. - On urban roads with more than one lane in the same direction, separated by longitudinal markings. In the picture, you can see a road outside a built-up area (there are no buildings, pedestrian areas, parking areas, etc.), so overtaking must be done on the left.
