Weather ConditionsDifficulty: 2/5
You are driving on a dual carriageway in heavy rain. Spray from vehicles is reducing visibility. A slow-moving lorry is ahead of you in the left-hand lane. What should you do if you want to overtake?
Explanation
In heavy rain and poor visibility, you must not overtake unless you are sure it is safe and legal, and you must only overtake on the right (Highway Code Rule 267). Spray and reduced visibility mean you should allow extra time and distance, make careful mirror and blind spot checks, and only move to the right-hand lane when you can complete the manoeuvre safely. Undertaking (passing on the left) is not allowed in normal conditions.
