-
You should be careful of the passenger car that is moving from the left lane to the middle lane and, if necessary, slow down.

21. Behind a lorry there is a convoy of passenger cars. Which passenger car should overtake first?
-
The last passenger car of the convoy.
-

-
When passing through tunnels.
-
When overtaking trains.
23. Which behavioural mistake leads, when overtaking in an expressway without a traffic island, to serious accidents?
-
Underestimation of the speed of the leading vehicles and of those coming from the opposite direction.

27. What should you do if you saw the traffic signs of this picture and why?
-
You must concentrate your attention slowing down if necessary, because the traffic signs warn of a dangerous curve on the left.
-

28. Why should you drive very carefully in this case?
-
Because the visibility is hindered by the bend and the road is wet.
-

-
Because you will come across a branch with an oblique left road, your speed must be restricted to 40 km/h.
30. The centrifugal force:
-
Pushes your vehicle to the inside of a bend.
-
Pushes your vehicle to the outside of a bend.
-
It may be sometimes noticeable on the right side of the vehicle.
