Question 128 in the bank

When are you permitted to pass another vehicle on its right side?

  1. When a vehicle is driving slower than you on the left lane in front of you.
  2. Correct answer: When you are driving in a right-turn-only lane.
  3. Only when you are driving a motorcycle.
  4. Only when you are driving in a left-turn-only lane.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: When you are driving in a right-turn-only lane.

Overtaking is normally done on the left, and passing a vehicle on its right is allowed only in special cases. When you drive in a right-turn-only lane, your lane leads in a different direction, so you may move past vehicles in the lane to your left. A slower vehicle in the left lane does not justify passing on the right, and motorcyclists follow the same rule.
