When there is no center line on the road, what should you do when passing another vehicle?

Pass as close as you can
Move as fast as you can
Stay to the left
Stay to the right

The correct answer is: Stay to the left

When there is no center line on the road, staying to the left allows for the maximum distance between your vehicle and the oncoming traffic, reducing the risk of a collision. Passing as close as you can (A) is dangerous and increases the chances of a side-swipe collision. Moving as fast as you can (B) is not a safe or sensible decision and can cause accidents due to a lack of control. Staying to the right (D) is incorrect as it would put you in the same lane as oncoming vehicles in some countries.
