On a two-lane road, you should:

Overtake and pass other vehicles only when a solid yellow line is painted on your side of the center line.
Overtake and pass another vehicle only to the left of the vehicle.
Keep a minimum following distance of 30 seconds.
Yield to trucks.
Explanation

When traveling on two-lane roads with traffic moving in both directions, you should pass other vehicles on the left only if signs or lane markings indicate that passing is allowed. Passing on the right is permitted only on roads with two or more lanes moving in the same direction or when the vehicle ahead is making a left turn. Use extreme caution when passing on the right, as it can be especially dangerous if the other driver does not see you and attempts to change lanes.
