Info on Passing Pt 2

Passing is Illegal When:

• You ignore the solid yellow or double solid yellow lines and cross them.
• The roadway is clearly marked u201cDo Not Pass.u201d
• You are passing a vehicle all ready speeding excessively and you must travel well above speed limits to pass.
• You do not have enough time to pass because either another vehicle is coming from the opposite direction, or the broken yellow line will soon become solid again.
• You are approaching a curve or top of hill or otherwise cannot see ahead.
• You are within 100 feet of a railroad crossing or bridge.
• You are behind a stopped school bus with children entering or exiting the bus.

It is particularly dangerous to pass, when:

• You must pass a long line of vehicles.
• Traffic is too close to pass safely.
• You are too near a no-passing zone, school zone, or intersection.
• You must speed in order to pass a vehicle.
• You would pass the vehicle on a hill.

Suppose another vehicle is trying to pass me?

• Slow down a bit and allow them to pass safely.
• Never speed up and race them. Be courteous.
