Explanation
When planning to pass another vehicle, you should not assume that the other driver will make space for you to return to your lane. Relying on other drivers to make room for you can be risky and may result in a collision. Instead, ensure that there is ample space between your vehicle and the one you are passing before returning to the driving lane.
