Question 651 in the bank

The following arrow is marked on the road, inside your lane. What does the arrow mean?

A grey road lane between white dashed lines, with a white arrow in the middle curving from the bottom upward and to the left. Meaning: From this lane you will have to turn left at the next intersection.
  1. Overtaking from the left is permitted.
  2. Correct answer: From this lane you will have to turn left at the next intersection.
  3. Deviate now to the left lane.
  4. You should deviate to the lane on your left.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: From this lane you will have to turn left at the next intersection.

A direction arrow painted inside a lane shows where traffic in that lane may go at the next intersection. A curved left arrow means that from this lane you will have to turn left there. It is not an instruction to move into another lane, and it has nothing to do with overtaking. If you want to go straight or right, move to the correct lane in good time.
