Practice question

If you are continually being passed on the right and left while driving in the center lane of an expressway, what should you do?

  1. Stay in the center lane
  2. Move to the lane on your right
  3. Move to the lane on your left
  4. Speed up to not obstruct traffic

Answer: B — Move to the lane on your right

When you are continually being passed on the right and left while driving in the center lane of an expressway, it indicates that you are impeding the flow of traffic. In such a situation, it is essential to move to the right lane to allow faster-moving vehicles to pass by you on your left. This helps maintain a smoother traffic flow and prevents potentially dangerous situations caused by slower-moving vehicles in the center lane. Remember, the center lane should primarily be used for passing slower vehicles, not for cruising or remaining stagnant in traffic.
