Show answer

Correct answer

  • BNo.No.
Explanation

Both in and outside built-up areas, on two-way carriageways with 3 lanes separated by broken longitudinal lines: you drive in the right-hand lane (never in the left-hand one). The central lane may be used only for overtaking or turning left (provided it is not occupied by traffic from the opposite direction).
