BDifficulty 2/5

On a road outside a built-up area with two lanes in your direction, which lane does a car normally use?

Correct answer

The right lane.

The right lane. Other lanes in the same direction may be used when traffic or road circumstances make it advisable, without obstructing following vehicles. The left lane is not exclusively reserved for overtaking in every circumstance. Do not confuse this rule with lane-choice options on certain urban roads.
