So
here are some tips for passing:

“Drive ahead.” Look down the road, to the sides, and to crossroads for
situations that might affect your passing patterns.
If
you have any doubt
whatsoever about making a successful pass, wait for
a
better time.
Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings, and lines. If you can see a
sign up ahead that might indicate a
turn
or an intersection, delay your
pass.
A
broken center line usually indicates it’s all right to pass
(providing the road ahead is clear). Never cross a solid line
on
your
side of the lane or a double solid line, even if the road seems empty of
approaching traffic.
Do not get too close to
the
vehicle
you
want to pass while you’re
awaiting
an
opportunity. For one thing, following too closely reduces
your area of vision, especially if you’re following a larger vehicle.
Also, you won’t have adequate space if the vehicle ahead suddenly
slows or stops. Keep back a reasonable distance.
When it looks like a chance to pass is coming up,
start
to
accelerate but
stay in the right lane and don’t get too close. Time your move
so
you,
will be increasing speed as the time comes to move into the other lane.
If the way
is
clear to pass, you will have a “running start” that more
than makes up for the distance you would lose by dropping back. And
if something happens to cause you to cancel your pass, you need only
slow down and drop back again and wait for another opportunity.
If other cars are lined up to pass a slow vehicle, wait your turn. But
take care that someone isn’t trying to pass you as you pull out to pass
the slow vehicle. Remember to glance over your shoulder and check
the blind spot.
Check your mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and start your left lane
change signal before moving out
of
the right lane to pass. When you
are far enough ahead
of
the passed vehicle
to
see its front in your inside
mirror, activate your right lane change signal and move back into the
right lane. (Remember that your right outside mirror is convex. The
vehicle you just passed may seem
to
be
farther away from
you
than
it
really is.)
Try
not to pass more than one vehicle at a time on two-lane roads.
Reconsider before passing the next vehicle.
Don’t overtake a slowly moving vehicle too rapidly. Even though the
brake lamps are not flashing, it may be slowing down or starting to
turn.
If
you’re being passed, make
it
easy for the following driver to get
ahead of you. Perhaps you can ease a little to the right.
