Correct answer
Lorries and vans over 3,500 kg MAM.
Lorries and vans over 3,500 kg MAM fall within Article 31.2. It also applies to special vehicles not required to use the shoulder and vehicle combinations over seven metres long. These drivers may use the adjacent lane under the stated conditions, not any lane further left. Combination length is compared with the seven-metre threshold, not a ten-metre threshold. Also obey signs and applicable special rules.
