Question 5687
On this freeway (autopista), the vehicle traveling in the center lane is not passing another vehicle. Is it traveling correctly?
- Yes, because it is not blocking other vehicles.
- No, because it should be traveling in the right lane.
- Yes, because it may use any lane.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, because it should be traveling in the right lane.
No. On a freeway, you normally drive in the right lane and use the others when traffic or road conditions call for it, for example, to pass. In the picture, the blue car is in the center lane without passing anyone, and the right lane is clear, so it must move to the right. Not getting in anyone’s way does not give it permission to stay in the center lane.
