After finishing an overtaking maneuver, how must the driver merge back into the right lane?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The return phase is critical to safely completing an overtaking maneuver. Regulations stipulate that the driver must merge back into their lane gradually and progressively, never abruptly, to avoid cutting off the overtaken vehicle. Before moving, it is mandatory to check the rear-view mirrors to ensure there is sufficient frontal distance from the passed vehicle and to clearly signal the intention with the right indicator. Waiting for others to flash their lights is not a rule and can cause confusion.
