Show other road users in good time that you will move onto the left or medium lane. Each overtaking must be displayed by flashing. After you have observed the rear and side traffic and could make sure that the left lane is free, the indicator must be pressed. Then you can change the lane and overtake the slower vehicle at a much increased speed. Just make sure that you do not exceed the permissible maximum speed.
