🚨 The terrible result of overtaking on the left (Undertaking) - do you also make these mistakes? A nearby CCTV camera recorded an accident that occurred when a car in front of the road was trying to turn left (or take a left turn on the road), and a motorcycle coming from behind was going to overtake the car on the left. Fortunately, the motorcyclist was wearing a helmet and was able to control his speed, so he was saved without any serious injuries.

Went to the left and got pinched, right? 🚨 The terrible result of overtaking on the left (Undertaking) - do you also make these mistakes? A nearby CCTV camera recorded an accident that occurred when a car in front of the road was trying to turn left (or take a left turn on the road), and a motorcycle coming from behind was going to overtake the car on the left. Fortunately, the motorcyclist was wearing a helmet and was able to control his speed, so he was saved without any serious injuries. 🛡️ Road Safety Advisory (Road Safety Advisory): Undertaking from the left is deadly: According to the Sri Lanka traffic law, any vehicle should be overtaken on the right side only. When a vehicle in front is slowing down or giving a left signal, never try to sneak through the small gap between that vehicle and the curb. Left blind spot (Blind Spot): Many motorists find it very difficult to see the motorcycle coming from the left very close to the vehicle in the side mirror while turning left. ATTENTION TO DRIVERS: Before turning left, turn on the left signal lamp at least 50 meters, double check the side mirrors and move the vehicle to the left corner of the road before making the turn.
