Cevap

Exclusively for overtaking slower-moving vehicles before returning to a lane on the left
According to Rule 264 of the Highway Code, you must always drive in the left-hand lane (Lane 1) whenever the road ahead is clear. The middle and right-hand lanes (Lanes 2 and 3) are provided solely for overtaking slower-moving vehicles. Once you have safely overtaken, you must move back to the left as soon as it is safe to do so.
