Correct answer
- BNoNo
No, as a general rule it is not allowed. Continuous longitudinal markings have a clear meaning: no driver may cross them or drive on them, nor drive to the left of them when they separate the two directions of traffic. This means that moving sideways (changing lanes) is prohibited if it requires crossing that line. The answer about lorries is wrong, because the prohibition applies to all vehicles regardless of their mass or size.
