BDifficulty 2/5

Outside a built-up area, a car travels on a motorway or dual carriageway with several lanes for its direction. Must it normally use the rightmost lane?

Correct answer

Yes, on both types of road.

Yes, on both. Other same-direction lanes may be used when conditions warrant, without impeding following traffic. A car is not always restricted to the immediately adjacent lane; that restriction affects certain categories on carriageways with three or more lanes per direction. Follow signs and applicable special rules.
