Correct answer
Only in the right-hand lane and, exceptionally, in the middle lane.
When the carriageway outside a built-up area on which we are driving our lorry of more than 3,500 kilograms MAM has 3 or more lanes for the same direction, drivers of lorries and vans with a MAM of more than 3,500 kg must normally drive in the lane furthest to the right, and may use the next one when traffic or road conditions make it advisable, provided they do not hold up another vehicle following them.
