  1. A
    Leave the motorway at the upcoming junction exit
  2. Move safely into the lane to your left as soon as possibleCevap
  3. C
    Remain in your current lane until you reach the physical obstruction ahead
  4. D
    Stay in your lane and accelerate to merge ahead of adjacent traffic

Cevap

Move safely into the lane to your left as soon as possible
An overhead matrix signal showing a diagonal arrow pointing down and to the left warns drivers that the lane ahead is closed. Drivers must check mirrors, signal, and move across safely into the lane to the left in good time before reaching the closed section.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the meaning of the overhead lane instruction signal
Recognised that a downward diagonal arrow pointing to the left indicates an upcoming lane closure in the current lane.
Highway Code Rule 257 outlines that matrix signals displaying lane change arrows instruct drivers to change lanes early.
2
Determine the appropriate and safe driving response
Check mirrors, indicate, and move across into the lane to the left when safe to do so without harsh braking or rapid acceleration.
Early merging prevents sudden lane changes ahead of the closed section or potential Red X gantry.
