In this situation, given the position of the tracks can the tram be overtaken from the left side?

Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

According to the Road Traffic Act, a rail vehicle is, as a rule, to be overtaken on its right-hand side. However, as shown in the video, the position of the tracks in the centre of the carriageway makes it impossible to perform such a manoeuvre. In this specific situation, the regulations permit overtaking the tram on its left-hand side.
