In Italy, overtaking (sorpasso) is generally permitted only on the left side of the vehicle you intend to pass. Overtaking on the right is prohibited except in specific, designated situations, such as when the vehicle ahead signals a left turn and there is sufficient space on the right, or in multi-lane congested traffic.
Overtaking is prohibited in many situations, including over a solid center line, at pedestrian crossings, on crests, in blind bends, and at or near intersections unless specific conditions apply (e.g., traffic regulated by semaphores or agents, or the vehicle being overtaken is a two-wheeled non-motorized vehicle without requiring movement into the opposing lane).
When overtaking a cyclist in Italy, you must maintain a minimum lateral safety distance of at least 1.5 meters, where possible. This rule highlights Italy's strong commitment to protecting vulnerable road users, being stricter than some other European countries like Belgium (which often has a 1-meter in-town rule).
The driver of a vehicle being overtaken must facilitate the overtaking maneuver and is strictly prohibited from accelerating. They should also keep as close as possible to the right edge of the carriageway on single-lane roads in each direction.
Yes, overtaking is generally prohibited near level crossings without barriers, particularly if it requires moving into the opposing lane, or within 100 meters of such a crossing, unless traffic is regulated by semaphores or traffic agents.
By completing Overtaking Rules, 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 Italy. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
