Passing target: 7 correct signs and 18 correct rules
Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
You are in the leftmost lane, which is not a designated HOV lane, on a highway with at least two lanes in each direction. A faster vehicle approaches from behind, and no exception applies. What should you do?
Correct answer: Move out of the leftmost lane when it is safe.
Why
On a roadway with at least two lanes in each direction, a driver in the leftmost lane, other than a designated HOV lane, must yield the lane when the driver knows or should reasonably know another vehicle is overtaking from behind. Exceptions include specified traffic, weather, control, left-turn, toll, emergency and work-related conditions. Make a safe lane change; the rule does not authorize speeding.
