Question: 1 / 50

When may you drive in the left lane on a road with two lanes?

When overtaking and passing

Driving in the left lane on a two-lane road is generally permissible when you are overtaking and passing another vehicle. This practice enhances safety and ensures a smooth flow of traffic. By using the left lane for passing, you allow faster vehicles to navigate around you without disruption, facilitating an efficient exchange on the roadway. The other situations don't justify traveling in the left lane. For instance, turning right would require positioning your vehicle in the right lane to ensure a safe and proper turn. Similarly, preparing to stop usually involves maintaining your lane position, and driving slowly often necessitates staying in the right lane to allow faster-moving traffic to pass. Thus, the left lane is primarily reserved for overtaking and passing on such roads.
