BDifficulty 2/5

As a general rule, on which side of a two-way carriageway must a vehicle driver travel?

Correct answer

On their right.

On the right, following lane-use rules and maintaining necessary lateral clearance. This is not a rule requiring every road user, including pedestrians, always to keep right. Nor does it prohibit every use of the left side: permitted manoeuvres and exceptions include certain safe overtaking. Markings and signs must be obeyed.
