Attitude
You catch up with a slow-moving farm tractor on a narrow country road. What should you do?
- Overtake immediately, even on a bend
- Be patient and wait until it is safe to overtakeCorrect
- Sound your horn until the tractor pulls over
- Drive very close behind to hurry the driver along
Why?
Rule 147 asks you to be patient and considerate towards other road users. A tractor may not be able to pull over easily, so hold back at a safe distance and only overtake when you can see it is clear and safe to do so.
