On a one-way road, a continuous line separates two lanes travelling in the same direction. May you use the lane to its left without touching or crossing the line?

Correct answer

Yes, if the lane is permitted and you neither touch nor cross the line.

Yes, if your vehicle may use that lane and other rules are met. The ban on travelling to the left of a continuous line concerns a line separating opposing directions. This does not permit touching or crossing it to change lanes. Overtaking is not automatically an exception; regulatory exceptions have specific requirements.
