Overtaking, Oncoming Traffic, Stopping and Standing
Overtaking
Overtake on the left. Before overtaking, check mirrors, signal, ensure the lane ahead is clear, that no one is overtaking you, and that you can complete the manoeuvre before any solid line or hazard. Overtaking is prohibited: at pedestrian crossings (unless no pedestrians and permitted), at intersections (except where priority signs allow), at railway crossings, on bridges, in tunnels, on bends with limited visibility, and where a sign or solid line forbids it. Never overtake a vehicle stopped at a crossing for pedestrians.
Oncoming traffic
Keep right when meeting oncoming vehicles; if an obstacle is on your side, you yield. On narrow mountain roads, the descending vehicle usually yields to the ascending one.
Stopping and standing
Stopping is a deliberate halt for up to five minutes (or longer for loading/unloading or passengers). Standing (parking) is longer. Stopping is prohibited on crossings, on tram tracks, at intersections and within a set distance of them, at bus stops, at railway crossings, in tunnels, on bridges, and where it would block visibility of signs or lights. Standing is prohibited additionally where stopping would obstruct, and outside built-up areas on the carriageway of roads marked as main roads. Stop at least 5 m before a crossing and 15 m from bus stop markings unless picking up passengers.
Traps
Questions blur "stopping" and "standing" (parking). Another trap: overtaking at an intersection is banned unless you are on the priority road. A third: you may not stop within the zigzag area of a crossing.
Rule of thumb
"If in doubt, do not overtake." The gain is seconds; the cost can be a head-on collision. For parking, ask: does my vehicle block sightlines, crossings or stops? If yes, move on.
