Explanation
Before passing on a multi-lane highway, it is important to check that the passing lane is clear. This means checking the far lane as well (if there is one), as someone in that lane may be planning to move into the same lane that you want to enter. It is also important to signal your intention to change lanes early enough so that others will know your plans in advance.
