In the pictured scenario, are you allowed to overtake the vehicle while crossing the tram tracks?

In the video, you are driving in town in the left lane of a one-way roadway with three lanes; you go through the traffic lights on green before a crossing for pedestrians and cyclists, and just beyond them tram tracks cross the roadway diagonally; in the lane to your right there is a yellow delivery minibus. In this situation, you are allowed to overtake the vehicle while crossing the tram tracks. The answer is: yes.

The Road Traffic Act prohibits overtaking a vehicle on a level crossing and immediately before it, and the rules on level crossings apply accordingly when crossing tram tracks - with one exception: the overtaking ban does not apply to a junction or a tram crossing where traffic is controlled. In the video, the tracks cross the roadway just beyond the traffic lights, and the crossing over them lies within the area controlled by those lights: the stop line is before the tracks, and you have a green light. This is a tram crossing with controlled traffic, so the ban does not apply here. The general conditions do apply: before the manoeuvre you make sure that you have visibility and space and that nobody behind you has started overtaking; on the rails, especially wet ones, you watch your grip.

Legal basis: Art. 28 para. 3 point 3 and para. 6 and Art. 24 para. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
