Are you entitled to overtake a car that is in the left lane?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

The provisions of the Road Traffic Act prohibit overtaking a vehicle on a pedestrian crossing and immediately before it. The recording clearly shows that you are approaching a marked crossing, which is confirmed by the warning sign A-16 "pedestrian crossing". As traffic at this crossing is not directed, the prohibition on overtaking applies absolutely.
