Question 3863

Once the green vehicle has finished passing, can it keep driving in the left lane?

  1. Yes, because on a freeway you can drive in any lane.
  2. No, you must drive in the right lane.
  3. No, because the second lane may only be used for passing.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, you must drive in the right lane.

No. Outside built-up areas, you normally drive in the right lane, and after passing, you must return to it as soon as you can, moving over gradually and using your turn signal. You may stay in the left lane if you are about to pass again and do not interfere with faster vehicles coming up behind you. In the image, there is no one else ahead of the truck to pass.
