Passing — Indiana Permit Test

When passing on a two-lane road, you must return to the right side no less than 100 feet before any oncoming vehicle.

Cutting it closer leaves no room if the oncoming driver is faster than you judged.

Make sure the passing lane is clear of traffic, as you must return to the right side of the road no less than 100 feet before any oncoming vehicle

When passing, keep going until you can see the vehicle you passed in your rearview mirror before returning to your lane.

If you can see it in the mirror, you have enough room to pull back in without cutting it off.

Move into the passing lane, accelerate, and continue to move forward until you can see the vehicle you are passing in your rearview mirror

It is illegal to pass when driving on or approaching a curve or the crest of a hill.

You cannot see an oncoming car around a curve or over a hill until it is too late.

Passing is illegal within 100 feet of an intersection, railroad crossing, bridge, viaduct or tunnel.

Those are places where a car may turn, stop, or the road narrows while you are beside someone.

When another vehicle is passing you, let it pass safely and do not speed up.

Speeding up traps the passing driver beside you, facing oncoming traffic.

If another vehicle is passing you on the left-hand side of the road, allow the other vehicle to pass safely and do not increase your speed.

How far before an oncoming vehicle must you be back in your lane after passing?

At least 100 feet. Cutting it closer leaves no room if the oncoming driver is faster than you judged. Indiana Driver's Manual, p.38: “Make sure the passing lane is clear of traffic, as you must return to the right side of the road no less than 100 feet before any oncoming vehicle”
