Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to Article 86(3) of the General Traffic Regulations, drivers of heavy vehicles, of large vehicles or of vehicles required to respect a specific speed limit must slow down or move aside as soon as possible onto the shoulder, if it is passable, to let those following them pass when the density of oncoming traffic, the insufficient width of the roadway, its profile or its condition do not allow them to be overtaken easily and without danger. That is, the obligation to cooperate exists, and that is why it is not valid to keep your path without doing anything. But it depends on those circumstances: it is not necessary to move aside in every case or on every type of road, but only when overtaking cannot be done easily and without danger. In addition, any driver who notices that another driver following them wants to overtake must keep to the right-hand edge of the roadway (Article 86(1)).
