Overtaking is strictly forbidden in locations such as curves and hill crests with reduced visibility, pedestrian crossings, level crossings (with some exceptions), and intersections unless you have priority or it's a roundabout. It is also prohibited in tunnels with only one lane for your direction.
Overtaking is forbidden in areas of reduced visibility, like blind curves or hill crests, because you cannot see oncoming traffic or potential hazards. This makes the maneuver extremely dangerous as you might collide head-on with another vehicle or fail to react to an obstacle.
Generally, overtaking is forbidden at level crossings. However, there is an exception: you may overtake two-wheeled vehicles (like motorcycles or bicycles) at a level crossing if there is sufficient visibility and the maneuver can be completed safely without putting them at risk.
Overtaking is generally prohibited at intersections. However, you may overtake at an intersection if you have clear priority, for example, indicated by a traffic light, a 'yield' sign (Ceda el Paso) for the cross traffic, or if it is a roundabout (glorieta).
According to Spanish traffic law, overtaking is strictly prohibited in tunnels (and underpasses) that have only one lane for each direction of travel. This is due to limited space and potential for head-on collisions.
By completing Prohibited Overtaking, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Spain. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
