In which specific places is overtaking prohibited, unless both directions are clearly delimited and the opposite lane is not invaded?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations prohibit overtaking in curves and grade changes (hill crests) with reduced visibility. The reason is safety: without sufficient visibility, you cannot anticipate oncoming traffic. The exception to this rule applies only if the two directions of traffic are clearly delimited (for example, by solid longitudinal road markings) and the maneuver can be performed safely without ever invading the opposite lane. The other options (urban roads or residential streets) generally allow overtaking under normal conditions.
