BDifficulty 2/5

Traffic fills the available carriageway width and each vehicle can only travel at the speed of the vehicle ahead in its lane. For which purpose is changing lanes prohibited in this situation?

Correct answer

Overtaking.

To overtake. Under Article 83.2, one lane moving faster than another is not considered overtaking in this situation. Lane changes are only allowed to prepare a turn, leave the carriageway or take a particular direction, while observing safety and signalling requirements. Merely having busy traffic is not enough to establish this special situation.
