Correct answer
The left-hand lane.
A white arrow shown as a road marking in a lane bounded by longitudinal lines indicates that every driver must follow the direction, or one of the directions, indicated by the arrow in the lane in which they are travelling or, if the signs allow it, change to another lane. If we want to go straight ahead in this situation, we cannot use the right-hand lane, which requires us to turn, so we must travel in the left-hand lane. As for the right-hand lane, if the arrow indicates only a turn to the right, as in the image, we must take that direction and may only continue straight ahead if we change to the left-hand lane.
