Question 795 of 1002

You are being overtaken by a truck. How can you contribute to making the overtaking safe?
Justification

The traffic rules require that the driver being overtaken must facilitate a safe overtaking:

'When a driver intends to overtake on the left, the driver in front shall stay as far to the right as possible and not increase their speed. If the vehicle being overtaken is moving slowly or occupies a great deal of space and the road does not offer an unobstructed view or there is oncoming traffic, its driver shall if necessary pull in to the right and slow down or stop.'

Options
Position myself well to the right and slow down
Signal to the right when I see that the truck wants to overtake
Maintain my speed to avoid creating a traffic jam behind me
Continue as normal since there is little I can do to make the overtaking safer
