Correct answer
The right-hand lane.
Normally use the rightmost lane. Outside built-up areas, other lanes in the same direction may be used when road or traffic conditions warrant it, without obstructing a following vehicle. On carriageways with three or more lanes per direction, Article 31.2 limits certain vehicles to the rightmost and adjacent lanes: lorries and vans with MAM over 3,500 kg, special vehicles not required to use the shoulder and combinations over seven metres.
