Correct answer
In the lane furthest to the right, and exceptionally, in the middle lane.
When driving on a carriageway outside a built-up area in a lorry with an MAM of more than 3,500 kilograms, if that carriageway has 3 or more lanes for the same direction, drivers of lorries and vans with an MAM of more than 3,500 kg must normally drive in the lane furthest to the right, and may use the next lane when traffic or road conditions make it advisable, provided they do not hinder the progress of another vehicle following them.
