Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: After checking and taking account of the position and speed of other vehicles in the intended lane.
Before changing lanes, check your mirrors and blind spot and judge the position and speed of vehicles already in the intended lane. Move over only when there is a safe gap that won't force others to brake or swerve, signalling first and moving smoothly. Signalling alone gives you no right of way, and a quick, bold swerve is dangerous.
