When are you (a motorcycle rider) required to return to your driving lane at the end of overtaking?
Official question from the Israeli Ministry of Transport pool · Category: Safety
- After first glancing in the mirrors and then making another check by looking briefly backwards over your right shoulder.
- A reasonable time after passing the overtaken vehicle.
- After seeing the overtaken vehicle in both motorcycle mirrors.
- When riding a motorcycle, you are not required to return to your former driving lane.
Why this matters beyond the test: When overtaking is prohibited and what counts as a safe passing distance -- the rules behind one of the highest-risk maneuvers a driver makes on any two-way road.
