Are you allowed to overtake on the left of the vehicle moving on your lane in a place marked in such a way?

Description

§ 86 para. 3 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and Internal Affairs and Administration of July 31, 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

In this situation, the left edge of your lane is designated by horizontal sign P-2 'single solid line'. According to § 86 para. 3 of the regulation on road signs and signals, it is prohibited to drive on or cross this line. Overtaking the vehicle on the left would require crossing this line, which is why such a manoeuvre is not permitted here.
