On a road with three lanes each way, you want to move from lane 2 to lane 3. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) wants to move from lane 2 to lane 3
- Car A is approaching from behind in lane 3
- Car B is driving ahead in lane 2
When changing lanes, signal in advance with the turn signal, and do not change lanes if it may interfere with the normal passage of vehicles coming in that lane (Articles 38(1) and 19(3) of the Road Traffic Act). Signaling does not give you priority, and checking must be done BEFORE you change lanes.
Answer: ①, ⑤
Explanation
To change lanes while travelling in the same direction, you must signal with your turn signal from at least 30 m (100 m on expressways) before the point where you change (Road Traffic Act Article 38(1), Enforcement Decree Annex 2). You must not change lanes if it may interfere with the normal travel of car A coming in the lane you want to enter (Article 19(3)). Signalling gives you no priority, and checks must be made before you move over.
