Correct answer
On the carriageway
On the carriageway. Article 31 requires this vehicle to use it rather than the shoulder, except for emergency reasons. With three or more lanes in its direction, this special vehicle that is not required to use the shoulder normally uses the right-hand lane and may use the adjacent left lane when circumstances warrant, without obstructing following traffic. The scenario excludes emergencies and special regulation; shoulder use is not prohibited in absolutely every circumstance.
