Zorluk: OrtaOvertaking Rules

According to the Highway Code (Rule 267), what is the correct chronological sequence of actions a driver should follow when preparing, executing, and completing an overtaking manoeuvre on a motorway?

  1. 1Check the interior rearview mirror and right door mirror to assess the speed and distance of trailing traffic.
  2. 2Take a quick sideways glance to check the right-hand blind spot.
  3. 3Signal right in good time to communicate your intention to move out.
  4. 4Move smoothly into the overtaking lane and pass the slower vehicle without exceeding the speed limit.
  5. 5Check the interior mirror until the overtaken vehicle is visible before signalling and moving back into the left lane.

Cevap

The correct sequence begins with checking interior and right door mirrors, followed by a blind-spot check, signalling right in good time, moving out smoothly to complete the overtake, and finally checking mirrors to ensure adequate clearance before returning to the left-hand lane.
Highway Code Rule 267 dictates that drivers must check mirrors first, verify the blind spot with a sideways glance, signal intentions in good time, move out smoothly to pass, and only return to the left lane when sufficient clearance is confirmed in the interior mirror.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Check the interior rearview mirror and right door mirror.
Assesses the approach speed and position of vehicles behind.
Observations must always precede any signalling or manoeuvring under the Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine.
2
Perform a quick sideways glance into the right blind spot.
Confirms no vehicle or vulnerable road user is positioned alongside out of mirror view.
Door mirrors have blind spots; Rule 267 specifically mandates a quick sideways glance before moving.
3
Apply the right-turn direction indicator in good time.
Informs other road users of your planned lane change.
Signals should be given only after checking that it is safe to carry out the intended action.
4
Steer smoothly into the right lane and overtake the target vehicle.
Executes the passing manoeuvre safely within the motorway speed limit.
Manoeuvring takes place once all checks and warnings have been properly given.
5
Verify clearance in the interior mirror, signal left, and return to the left lane.
Safely resumes normal lane discipline without cutting across the overtaken driver.
Rule 267 requires drivers to return to the left lane as soon as safe and ensure adequate separation.
