    I had to look it up, but using overhaul with the meaning of overtake is apparently valid. It sounds odd to me, and I’ve never actually heard it used that way, but Merriam-Webster validates it.

      Oh weird, I even asked around with some of my linguistically minded coworkers and nobody was familiar with that expression. I wonder if there’s a region where it’s a more common usage.
