Right answer and explanation

Right answer: B. That you endanger no one behind and do not block oncoming traffic

Before pulling out to overtake, you must make sure it is safe for the traffic behind you and that oncoming traffic will not be obstructed. If the vehicle ahead is indicating right, it means it is about to turn, and you must not overtake.
