What is a lane?
- A roadway designated for motor-vehicle traffic only.
- Correct answer: Part of a road’s width, designed to accommodate one line of vehicles, not including two-wheelers.
- Any marking of two parallel lines on the roadway.
- A passage in a private road in which vehicle traffic is prohibited.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Part of a road’s width, designed to accommodate one line of vehicles, not including two-wheelers.
A lane is a part of the road's width that is wide enough for one line of vehicles, not counting two-wheelers. A lane may be marked with lines or unmarked. Road markings only separate lanes, so a pair of parallel lines is not what defines a lane. A whole roadway reserved for motor vehicles is also not a lane.
