On a divided highway with four or more lanes, in which lane may trucks also drive?

• A. The lane to the left of the far-right
• B. The far-right lane
• C. The leftmost lane
• D. The lane to the right of the far-left

Answer: (D)

On a divided highway with four or more lanes, the leftmost lane is for passing. Slower traffic, including trucks, should use the other lanes to keep that left lane clear for faster vehicles to pass. The lane immediately to the right of the far-left is one of the lanes trucks may use for travel, as long as they are not in the leftmost lane simply to slow traffic or impede passing. In practice, stay out of the leftmost lane unless you’re actively passing, then move back to the right.
