Final answer:

You cannot pass another vehicle when there's a solid yellow line on your side, you're approaching an intersection, or you're in a no-passing zone.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context of driving and road safety, there are specific conditions under which you are not allowed to pass another vehicle. You are not allowed to pass:

  • B. When a solid yellow line is on your side of the center line. This generally indicates that passing is prohibited for traffic moving in your direction.
  • C. When you're approaching an intersection. Passing at intersections is dangerous due to the potential for cross-traffic.
  • D. When you're in a no-passing zone. Such zones are typically marked by signs or road surface markings, and passing is illegal.

The other options provided, such as A. having a clear view of the road ahead or E. the vehicle in front of you going below the speed limit, do not automatically prohibit you from passing. However, all passing maneuvers should be executed with caution, adhering to road signs, signals, and general safety rules.
