You are driving a bus. Are you allowed in this situation to overtake the passenger car?
Description
§ 23 para. 3 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended).
Explanation
Correct answer: Yes
The B-26 'no overtaking by heavy goods vehicles' sign visible on the right only prohibits the overtaking of multi-track motor vehicles by drivers of trucks with a MAM exceeding 3.5 t, road tractors, and special-purpose vehicles with a MAM exceeding 3.5 t. According to § 23 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals, this prohibition does not apply to bus drivers. Therefore, when driving a bus, you have the right to overtake a passenger car in the situation presented.
