BDifficulty 2/5

On a two-way carriageway with only two lanes in total, one per direction, for which manoeuvre may a driver normally use the left lane if permitted and safe?

Correct answer

For overtaking

To overtake, complying with signs, markings and all other safety conditions. That lane belongs to oncoming traffic and is not for normal driving. This is not a road with two lanes per direction, which has different lane-use rules.
