Explanation
Passing on the right is unsafe and usually illegal, with few exceptions. You can pass on the right when a vehicle ahead makes a left turn. If you prepare to pass on the right at an intersection, check the traffic ahead carefully. Make sure a vehicle that is approaching is not prepared to turn left into your path, and watch at the right side of the road for pedestrians and bicyclists.
