• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only on highways
• D. Only at night

Answer: (A)

When another vehicle is overtaking you, keep your speed steady and stay in your lane. If you speed up, you reduce the space the overtaking driver needs to complete the pass, which can lead to misjudgment or a close margin and increase the risk of a collision. By maintaining your current speed, you give them the room to pass safely. Once they have finished overtaking and are clearly ahead, you can resume your normal speed.
