On a two-lane road, when is it permissible to pass another vehicle on the right?

Passing another vehicle on the right is permissible when the vehicle ahead is turning left. This situation is a common occurrence on two-lane roads where vehicles make left turns at intersections or driveways. In such cases, the vehicle making the left turn occupies the left lane, creating an opportunity for the following driver to pass safely on the right without interfering with the left-turning vehicle.

This maneuver is conducted in alignment with Pennsylvania traffic laws, which allow for passing on the right when it is safe and legal. The other options may not necessarily represent safe or lawful circumstances for passing; for instance, passing simply because the road is clear or if one is in a hurry could lead to reckless driving behaviors, while adherence to the speed limit alone does not dictate the legality of passing. Thus, the situation of a left-turning vehicle provides a valid reason to perform this action safely and legally.
