no passing
Don't go around
No passing indicates that vehicles may not overtake others on this stretch of road.
The phrase appears on traffic signs, often with a symbol showing two cars side by side with a prohibition mark.
A no passing zone typically occurs on curves, hills, or narrow sections where limited visibility makes overtaking dangerous: We were stuck behind the slow truck through the entire no passing zone.
