Let’s say I am talking about an accident that occurred during an F1 race
Rather than overtaking through/in/from left, the driver(B) did the opposite and caused an accident as the driver ahead(A) did not expect B to come through/in right.
So what is the right preposition to use in this expression?
Answer
The use of prepositions is highly idiomatic in many cases, and this is one of them. Generally, one passes “on” the left or right, as Stoney says. However, as Jim says, “overtaking” can use either from or on. “Come from the right” is correct, however, although “come by on the right” or “come through on the right” could also be used.
