Question 5739
A combination of vehicles more than 7 meters long is traveling on a road with three lanes in each direction. Which lanes may it use in addition to the right lane?
- None, since it may only travel in the right lane.
- Any of them.
- The lane immediately next to it when traffic or road conditions make it advisable.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The lane immediately next to it when traffic or road conditions make it advisable.
Outside built-up areas, with three or more lanes in your direction, a vehicle combination more than 7 meters long normally travels in the right lane. It may also use the lane immediately next to it when traffic or road conditions call for it, like the passenger car towing a travel trailer in the picture as it passes the truck. It must not use the leftmost lane.
