Should you resign from overtaking in this situation?

💡 Explanation

Correct answer: YES

🔍 Situation analysis: You are approaching a section of the road with a sharp turn to the right, indicated by a warning sign. The vehicle in front of you is moving along a solid double line, which prohibits crossing it.

📖 Explanation of the rule: Overtaking is a maneuver that requires perfect visibility and sufficient space. In this case, there is a double prohibition: one resulting from the double solid line (which must not be encroached upon or crossed) and another from the limited road visibility caused by the curve. Safety dictates that you should remain behind the vehicle in front in this situation.

💡 Tip: Always treat warning signs (those with a red border) as a signal to ease off the accelerator and prepare for changing conditions. Never start overtaking if you are not sure about the situation in front of the vehicle you intend to pass.
