Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant violated traffic rules by overtaking the stopped bus and failing to keep safe distances.
Solution extraite
The manoeuvre was a prohibited overtaking within the meaning of the traffic rules; the appellant also failed to maintain sufficient distance and endangered oncoming traffic.
Motifs extraits
A reasonable driver had to infer that the bus had stopped because of an obstacle; overtaking a stopped vehicle in that situation is still an overtaking manoeuvre and was not allowed.
