CDifficulty 1/5

A lorry with a MAM of 5,000 kg is authorised to use the road. In which case may it use a lane opened in the direction opposite to normal, provided it is not expressly prohibited?

Correct answer

Only when that lane is authorised due to roadworks on the carriageway

When opened because of roadworks. In that case vehicles authorised to use the road under works may use it unless expressly prohibited. If opened for traffic flow, it is reserved for motorcycles and passenger cars without trailers, so this lorry may not use it. Under Article 41, keep at least dipped headlights on by day and night, travel between 60 and 80 km/h or at lower established or signed limits, and do not enter the normal-direction lanes, even to overtake.
