Question 4307

A passenger car with a light trailer, measuring less than 7 meters long, where must it drive?

  1. In the right lane, although it may travel in any of the three.
  2. In the right lane, since this is the only one permitted for trailers.
  3. In either of the two left lanes, since this is the maximum speed at which it can travel.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the right lane, although it may travel in any of the three.

Outside built-up areas, a passenger car with a light trailer measuring less than 7 meters in total normally travels in the right lane, like the one in the image. If traffic or road conditions make it advisable, it may use any of the other lanes in its direction without obstructing vehicles behind it. Only vehicle combinations over 7 meters long are limited to the right lane and the next one.
