Passing another vehicle on a two-lane road can be dangerous. To reduce the risk
of danger while passing:
• | A vehicle like yours takes a longer time to reach passing speed, so you
will need a longer stretch of clear road ahead than you would with a passenger car. |
• | Look down the road, to the sides, and to crossroads for situations that
might affect a successful pass. If in doubt, wait. |
• | Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings, and lines that could indicate
a turn or an intersection. Never cross a solid or double-solid line on your
side of the lane. |
• | Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to pass. Doing so can reduce
your visibility. |
• | Wait your turn to pass a slow vehicle. |
• | When you are being passed, ease to the right. |
