On which roads you cannot overtake even if there is no signal

There are certain zones that warn that overtaking is prohibited with a symbol of two parallel cars surrounded by a red circle. but in other areas there will be a solid line bounding both lanes

Overtaking is prohibited in places where the lack of visibility causes it
maneuver is particularly dangerous: in curves and height differences without visibility, behind a voluminous vehicle that overtakes, on ground and pedestrian crossings, at some intersections and tunnels, according to the General Direction of Traffic (DGT).

And it is that overtaking is a maneuver that requires foresight and care and where visibility, the condition of the road and of course the power and acceleration of our car are very important. Also know that it is not always possible. There are certain areas that warn that overtaking is prohibited with a sign, with a symbol of two parallel cars surrounded by a red circle. However, in other areas where there is no traffic sign or the solid line that demarcates both lanes and which also indicates the overtaking ban.

the DGT
collect them for more safety:

–
Curves and slope changes without visibility: In these areas, the driver has insufficient visibility of the road and may encounter another car driving in the opposite direction, significantly increasing the danger of overtaking.

–
Behind an overtaking truck: Here we also have a vision problem due to the volume of the vehicle we are following.

–
Consider and environment: In these areas there is an increased risk of a tram or train passing without the driver having sufficient time to react. At the same time, the lateral view of the overtaking vehicle is reduced.

–
Crossroads and proximity: The passing vehicle cannot see any cars or motorcycles approaching from the right.

–
zebra crossings: Maneuvers performed in these areas will lose sight of a possible zebra crossing, increasing the risk of being run over.

–
in tunnels: In tunnels or underpasses with traffic in both directions, overtaking is prohibited unless there is more than one lane for the overtaking vehicle’s direction of travel.
