What does driving overtaking and passing mean?
Coming up behind a car at a faster speed and moving around said vehicle.
How much faster should you travel than the vehicle you are passing?
That depends on how quickly you need to get past the vehicle you're passing. If I'm passing on a two lane highway with no traffic coming the other direction, in my opinion, a reasonable speed would be 10-20 MPH faster than the vehicle you're passing.
If another vehicle is passing you do you maintain your speed?
There are a couple scenarios in this situation when a vehicle passes you on the left on a 2 lane highway. To answer your question, you should maintain your speed, but you can also slow down a little bit to get the passing vehicles past you faster. If there's a danger of a head-on collision with an oncoming vehicle and the vehicle passing you, you need to pay attention to what the passing vehicle does, only one of two scenarios will occur: If the passing vehicle decides to speed up to get past you to, you need to slow down! If the passing vehicle slows down to drop back behind you, you need to speed up! Whatever the passing vehicle decides to do in that scenario you do the opposite. The idea is to get the vehicle back into the right lane as quickly as possible!

How fast are you allowed to go when passing another vehicle?
i recently read you are allowed 5 mph over or under the posted speed limit. and also that when you are legally passing a vehical you must got 10mph faster then the car you are trying to pass. is this true???
When is it permissible to exceed the limit to pass a slower moving vehicle?
Most states require slower moving traffic to move over and let faster vehicles by on multi lane highways. Even if a slower vehicle is driving the posted limits it must move over unless passing. Not only the law but is safer for all if slower moving traffic does not impede others. Even if not the law it is just the courteous and responsible thing to do. On a two lane road I will move over to allow a faster car to come by me if it can be done safely. I will also ease up on my speed a bit to assist an overtaking driver coming by me in a passing zone so he or she can come by safely.
If driving wheel and driven wheel of gear system are of same size which will more faster?
Gears are used to transfer force from one wheel to another. When gears are of the same size then driving gear will move faster as force is being applied on
What is the 3 second plus rule in driving?
The 3 second rule (sometimes it's a 2 second rule) refers to the spacing a vehicle should maintain when following another vehicle, regardless of speed. The theory is that the faster the vehicles are traveling, the greater the margin of safety (spacing or distance) between the vehicles will be.
