When is it permissible to pass on the right?

Passing on the right is permissible when the vehicle in front is making a left turn and there is enough space to do so safely. This situation typically arises when the road is wide enough to allow for such a maneuver without interfering with the left-turning vehicle or creating a hazard. The law encourages drivers to ensure that this action is safe and does not lead to potential collisions or dangerous situations.

In contrast, situations such as when there is an oncoming vehicle, or when driving in a no-passing zone, inherently pose risks and are regulated to maintain safety on the roads. On a one-way street, while it may sometimes be possible to pass on the right, that is not the primary reason for allowing the maneuver; the presence of a vehicle turning left is the specific scenario that provides the necessary justification for crossing over, given the conditions are safe.
