Question 7210

On this freeway there are many vehicles, and the ones in the right lane are traveling faster than those in the left lane. Is this allowed?

  1. Yes, because when all lanes are occupied it is not considered passing.
  2. Yes, but it is only allowed for emergency vehicles.
  3. No, since passing on the right is prohibited.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because when all lanes are occupied it is not considered passing.

Yes. When all lanes are occupied and each car is moving at the pace of the one ahead, one line of traffic moving faster than another does not count as passing, even if it is the line on the right. This applies to any vehicle.
