(a) when meeting, leave sufficient space for the vehicle or accompanied animal coming from the opposite direction,

(b) when being overtaken, keep as close as practicable to the appropriate edge of the carriageway and not accelerate.

3 Drivers intending to overtake shall make sure that there is sufficient room and sufficient visibility ahead to permit overtaking without danger. After overtaking they shall bring their vehicles back to the right or left hand side according to the rule observed in the country concerned, but only after making sure that this will not inconvenience the vehicle, pedestrian or animal overtaken.
