On a road that is not an expressway, with three lanes each way, you are driving a truck in lane 1 without overtaking anyone. Car A is coming from behind in lane 2. Which TWO statements are correct? Select TWO
- Your vehicle (blue truck) is driving in lane 1
- Car A is approaching from behind in lane 2
- Three lanes each way, not an expressway
Designated lanes are set by Annex 9 of the Enforcement Rule, and on roads other than expressways with an odd number of lanes, the key is which side the middle lane belongs to. Note that the lanes a truck travels in differ from the lane it may use when overtaking, and that you move one lane at a time.
Answer: ②, ⑤
Explanation
On roads other than expressways with an odd number of lanes, the left lanes are those nearer lane 1 excluding the middle lane and the rest are right lanes, so on a three-lane road a truck must use lanes 2 and 3 (Enforcement Rule, Annex 9). When overtaking, it may use the lane immediately to the left of its designated lanes (lane 1). When changing lanes, signal (Road Traffic Act Article 38(1)) and move one lane at a time when it will not obstruct car A coming from behind (Article 19(3)).
