Correct answer
- BNo, en ningún caso.No, never.
This is the correct answer. On a two-way carriageway with three lanes, using the third lane is prohibited in all cases. This is because each lane has a specific purpose and the third lane may not be used for driving or for manoeuvres, which ensures the safety of all road users.
