While you are overtaking another vehicle, what rule applies to your speed?

Answer options

Why

Passing does not suspend the speed limit, so the whole maneuver has to be completed at a legal speed in a place where passing is allowed. If you cannot get around the other vehicle without speeding, stay behind it and wait for a better chance.
