§ 1036. No-passing zones
(a) The Traffic Committee is authorized to determine those portions of any highway under
its jurisdiction where overtaking and passing or driving on the left side of the roadway
would be especially hazardous and may by appropriate signs indicate the beginning
and end of the zones, and when the signs are in place and clearly visible to an ordinarily
observant person, every driver of a vehicle shall obey the directions.
(b) Where signs are in place to define a no-passing zone as set forth in subsection (a)
of this section, no driver shall at any time drive to the left of the center of the
roadway within the no-passing zone.
(c) Restrictions imposed under this section do not apply when subdivision 1031(a)(2) of this title applies or where a vehicle is turning left into an alley, private road, or driveway. (Added 1971, No. 258 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. March 1, 1973.)
