Are you allowed in this situation to overtake the vehicle?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you are driving in the left lane of one roadway of a dual carriageway - on your left there are tram tracks on the central reservation, and a red car is driving next to you in the right lane. At the end of the video, just ahead of you, there is a pedestrian crossing with D-6 signs on both sides, and the line between the lanes changes into a solid line before it. You must not overtake immediately before a crossing. The answer is: no.
The Road Traffic Act prohibits overtaking on a pedestrian crossing and immediately before it, except at a crossing where traffic is controlled. The car being overtaken would hide from you a pedestrian stepping onto the zebra crossing from the right, and the solid line P-2 also prevents changing lanes at this place. You stay in your lane behind the red car and overtake only after the crossing.
Legal basis: Art. 26 para. 3 point 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym); § 86 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
