C1Difficulty 3/5

For traffic flow reasons, a lane has been opened running in the direction opposite to normal. May you drive your lorry, with an MAM of over 3,500 kg, in that lane?

Correct answer

No.

No. When a contraflow lane is opened for traffic flow, use is limited to motorcycles and passenger cars without trailers; that rule does not authorise a lorry. If opened for roadworks, vehicle types authorised on the road under repair may use it unless expressly prohibited and subject to applicable conditions. Distinguish the two cases.
