When is overtaking forbidden?

Your answer is correct. In German traffic rules, overtaking is forbidden in these situations to ensure safety. First, if you cannot drive significantly faster than the vehicle you want to overtake, overtaking is unsafe and not allowed because it can cause congestion or unexpected slowdowns. Second, if you do not have a clear view of the road ahead, such as on curves, hills, or intersections, you cannot judge oncoming traffic safely, so overtaking is prohibited. Third, if the overall traffic situation is unclear or complex, overtaking could lead to accidents due to unpredictable movements, so it is not allowed. These rules help prevent dangerous situations during overtaking maneuvers.
