Correct answer
In the rightmost lane in your direction of travel.
Normally use the rightmost lane in your direction, rather than the shoulder. Other lanes in that direction may be used when traffic or road circumstances make it advisable, without obstructing following vehicles; their use is not limited to overtaking. Extraordinary motorcycle shoulder use is permitted only on designated, signed sections when carriageway traffic is stopped by congestion, at no more than 30 km/h and in single file, without endangering regular shoulder users. The question excludes that case and emergencies.
