Correct answer

Explanation

According to the catalogue of road markings in Annex I of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), the wide broken line (M-1.6 and M-1.7) separates a special lane from the basic lanes: an entry or exit lane, a weaving lane, a lane reserved for certain vehicles or an additional lane. It does not mark the edge of the carriageway, and reversible lanes are marked with double broken lines.
