Explanation
When you want to pass a vehicle, always signal your intentions by activating your turn signal before moving into the left lane. Maintain a safe following distance from the vehicle you intend to pass - the closer you get, the less you can see ahead. Before pulling out to pass, check your blind spots and ensure you have plenty of room. Do not return to the right side of the road until you can see the front bumper or tires of the vehicle you passed in your rearview mirror.
