In this situation, is it permitted to overtake the cyclist from the right?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

According to the regulations, the overtaking manoeuvre is, as a general rule, carried out on the left. Overtaking on the right is possible only in strictly defined situations, for example, on a carriageway with at least two lanes for traffic in the same direction. The road shown in the video does not meet this condition, as it has only one lane in the direction of travel.
