In most cases you should pass cars in your lane as you would if driving a car: look behind you, signal left, get into the left lane, and pass. Here are some things to remember about passing:
Pass Left
Pass moving cars on the left when you can. That’s where motorists expect you to pass, so that’s where they look.
Don’t Pass on Turn Side
If a vehicle is about to turn, don’t pass it on the side it’s turning toward.
Opening Doors
When you pass a stopped car, watch out for the driver or a passenger opening their door. Pass four feet from the car, or (if the car’s stopped in traffic) pass on the side with no passengers.
Cars Speeding Up
If you’re passing a car and it speeds up, stay in your lane and slow down. After the car passes you, look back, signal, then merge back behind the car.
