Left lane is nearest the oncoming traffic, right lane is nearest the curb/shoulder.Reliant121 wrote:central lane of a three lane road.
Technically we would probably use outside, inside (for a two lane road) and then a centre (for three lane roads). I believe in the states you refer to the Outside Lane as as the one closest the roadside and the Inside the closest the centre; we reverse them, as the outside lane is the one closest the centre of the road and the inside is the one farthest from the centre road.
Okay, it is a little different here. On a three lane road the middle lane is usually the cursing lane where the majority of people are. The left lane is the passing/fast lane. The right lane is normally slower trucks, old people and such. That is why I questioned what was meant by center, Something like the CLOC is the norm here. It iss not law or anything, we actually have the "stay as to the right as possible" but that usually is just followed on 2 lane roads.
Lane #1 is fast/passing (5+ over the speed limit)
Lane #2 has the majority of people in it (speed limit +5)
Lane #3 "those" people (speed limit -)
If the CLOC people need to move out of the middle lane so that it can be a fast/passing lane... then what is the 3rd lane, Autobaun?
