BDifficulty 2/5

During ordinary travel in a passenger car on a two-way carriageway with two lanes, one per direction, which lane must you use?

Correct answer

In the right-hand lane

Use the right lane; this is an obligation, not merely a preference. Opposing space may be occupied only when a permitted manoeuvre requires it and its conditions are met, such as authorised overtaking or passing an obstruction. Do not claim the left lane can only be used for overtaking while ignoring other regulatory cases.
