Correct answer
The rightmost lane; the adjacent lane may be used under the regulatory conditions.

On a three-lane carriageway that adjacent lane is the centre lane; it is not always prohibited. This is not permission to use all three interchangeably or a rule applying to every vehicle type solely because it exceeds 3,500 kg.
