You’re trapped behind the winner of the Slow Driver of the Year Award, and your wife is at the hospital, about to give birth. (Never mind why you got married so young; now’s neither the time nor the place to rag on you for that.) You need to pass the car in front of you—how to go about it?

First, you must always pass on the left except in certain circumstances: either you are driving along a highway that has multiple lanes of traffic going in your direction, or the vehicle ahead of you is turning left and you are able to pass them on the right without driving off the road. After you have checked to make sure that the road before you is safe and clear, that there are no unusual or dangerous conditions, that there are no railroads or busy entrances nearby, and that Cruella de Vil is not driving the car in front of you, you may go ahead and pass. You should never go outside the solid white lines when performing this maneuver, nor should you ever moon the car you are passing or have your passenger lean out the window and ask the other driver what hair care products she uses. Pass the vehicle as quickly and safely as possible, and then merge back into your original lane.
