On a Québec expressway posted at 100 km/h, which is a permitted reason for an ordinary car to use the extreme left lane?
A blue car travels in the leftmost of three same-direction expressway lanes beside a white car in the middle lane.
Correct answer: To pass another vehicle safely while staying within the speed limit.
Why
The extreme left lane can be used for a safe pass, a left turn or exit, or when the lane in use is obstructed or closed. It is not a lane for unrestricted speed or routine lingering. Return to an appropriate right-hand lane when safe after passing, and respect the speed limit throughout.
