Idaho Written Driver's License Practice Test

Passing another vehicle on the right is permissible under specific circumstances. One primary scenario is when the vehicle in front is making a left turn. In this case, passing on the right is allowed because it facilitates the flow of traffic and avoids unnecessary delays. Vehicles turning left create a situation where they are temporarily blocking the lane, and driving past them on the right safely allows drivers to continue on their way without waiting. Additionally, passing on the right is also permissible on a one-way street where multiple lanes are available. Here, since all vehicles are moving in the same direction and there is no risk of a vehicle turning across lanes, it is safe and legal to pass on the right. Both of these situations—when a vehicle is turning left and on a one-way street—are instances where passing on the right adheres to the rules of the road and contributes to safe driving practices.
