Explanation
When you pass another vehicle, move completely into the left lane. Before returning to the right lane, signal and make sure you can see the front bumper of the vehicle you passed in your interior rear-view mirror. Quickly glance over your right shoulder to confirm that you can move into the right lane without crowding the vehicle you just passed, and then re-enter the right lane.
