When are private passenger cars permitted to turn right from a lane other than the right lane?
- Turning is permitted for vehicles driving at a higher speed than that of the vehicles on the right lane.
- It is permitted when road traffic is sparse.
- Never. The law permits only heavy and long vehicles to turn right from a lane other than the right one.
- Correct answer: In a road where more than one lane is marked for turning right.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: In a road where more than one lane is marked for turning right.
Normally a right turn must be made from the rightmost lane. When road markings or signs show that more than one lane is designated for turning right, a private car may also turn from one of those marked lanes, not only the far right one. Light traffic or driving faster than the right lane never makes it legal to turn from an unmarked lane.
