Explanation
When passing a motorcycle, move completely into the left lane to create sufficient distance between your vehicle and the motorcycle and reduce the risk of a collision. Additionally, maintaining your position in the left lane during the pass provides a clear path for both your vehicle and the motorcycle, minimizing the chance of a dangerous situation. After completing the pass, make sure that you can safely move into the right lane without crowding the vehicle you passed, then return to the right lane.
