Do you have to refrain from overtaking in this situation?

In the video you are driving in town behind a person on an electric scooter wearing a high-visibility vest; ahead of you there is a pedestrian crossing marked with sign D-6, and on the right a woman is walking up to it. In this situation you must refrain from overtaking. The answer is: yes.

The Road Traffic Act prohibits a driver from overtaking a vehicle on a pedestrian crossing and immediately before it, except at a crossing where traffic is controlled. The crossing in the video has no traffic lights, and the scooter is right in front of the crossing, so overtaking it would happen exactly in the prohibited place. There is a second reason: a pedestrian is approaching the crossing, and when approaching a crossing you must exercise particular caution, reduce speed and give way to a pedestrian entering the crossing. The ban is so strict because the vehicle being overtaken blocks the view - the woman would not see you, and you would not see her. So you stay behind the scooter, slow down together with it and overtake only after the crossing, with a distance of at least 1 m.
