By generalizing the algebra of operators of the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (ASEP), a multi-species ASEP in which particles can overtake each other is defined on both open and closed one-dimensional chains. On the ring the steady state and the correlation functions are obtained exactly. The relation to particle hopping models of traffic and the possibility of shock waves in open systems is discussed. The effect of the boundary condition on the steady-state properties of the bulk is studied.
