1. Crossing is performed on the right si<strong>de</strong>.<br />

2.Every driver who passes another must leave on his left a<strong>de</strong>quate space for the easy passage of<br />

the other and, where necessary, come close to the right bor<strong>de</strong>r of the roadway, if, at the time of<br />

carrying out the crossing, his progression is held up by an impediment or by the presence of<br />

other users, he must slow down and, where necessary, stop to l<strong>et</strong> pass the user or users coming<br />

in the opposite direction.<br />

3. Where the width of the roadway does not permit to perform easily the crossing, a driver can<br />

move to the verges, as far as he does not put in danger users who are there.<br />

4. Where the width of the public roadway used by vehicles is ina<strong>de</strong>quate to permit them to cross<br />

without danger, users have to facilitate each other's passage.<br />

5 On mountain roads and other public roadways with steep slopes, where crossing is impossible<br />

or difficult, the driver of the <strong>de</strong>scending vehicle must pull in to the si<strong>de</strong> his vehicle to l<strong>et</strong> the<br />

ascending vehicle pass.<br />

Except where traffic islands permitting vehicles to pull in to the si<strong>de</strong> are avallable, so that,<br />

taking into account the speed and the position of the vehicles, the ascending vehicle has a traffic<br />

island before it and that a reverse is necessary to one of the vehicles if the ascending vehicle did<br />

not pull in to the si<strong>de</strong> on to this traffic island.<br />

In case a reverse is unavoidable for one of these vehicles, the obligation to perform the reverse<br />

is incumbent on drivers of single vehicles in relation to drivers of s<strong>et</strong> of vehicles, on drivers of<br />

light vehicles in relation to drivers of heavy vehicles, and on vehicles supplying goods in<br />

relation to vehicles ensuring the public transport of persons.<br />

Where the vehicles which must cross are of the same category, the obligation to reverse is<br />

incumbent on the <strong>de</strong>scending driver, except where this manoeuvre is obviously easier for the<br />

ascending vehicle.<br />

Article 21:<br />

1. Overtaking is performed on the left si<strong>de</strong>.<br />

However, overtaking can be performed on the right si<strong>de</strong> where the driver to overtake, after he<br />

has shown his intention of moving to the left, has driven his vehicle or animals to the left si<strong>de</strong> of<br />

the roadway in or<strong>de</strong>r:<br />

a) to turn either on the left to follow another public way;<br />

b) to enter a property bor<strong>de</strong>ring that roadway or to park on the left si<strong>de</strong> of the roadway.<br />

2. Before overtaking, every driver must ensure:<br />

a) that no following driver has started a manoeuvre to overtake him;<br />

b) that the preceding driver on the same way has not shown his intention to overtake another<br />

person or to turn on the left;<br />

c) that the traffic band he is going to follow is free on a sufficient distance so that, taking into<br />

account the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween the speed of his vehicle during the manoeuvre and that of the<br />

users to overtake, his manoeuvre be not of a nature to put in danger or to hold up users coming<br />

in the opposite direction;<br />

d) that, when he follows a public way forbid<strong>de</strong>n to the traffic coming in the opposite direction,<br />

he will, without danger or obstacle for the user or the overtaken users reach the other si<strong>de</strong> of the<br />

roadsi<strong>de</strong>.
