Show the correct answer
Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the photo you are driving outside a town on a one-way roadway with three lanes in your direction; traffic in the opposite direction uses the other roadway behind the barrier. The car in front of you is driving in the left lane. On such a roadway you may also overtake on the right. The answer is: yes.
The Road Traffic Act takes overtaking on the left as the rule, but allows overtaking on the right on a section of road with marked traffic lanes on a one-way roadway, and on a two-way roadway when at least two lanes in a built-up area (three outside it) lead in the same direction. When overtaking on the right, remember that the driver may move to the right without thinking - watch his indicator and keep your distance.
Legal basis: Art. 24 para. 3 and para. 10 point 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
