Practice question · Lanes and turns

On a highway, which lane should you use if you drive slower than traffic?

The rule

If you are driving slower than traffic on a highway, use the right lane whenever you can. Where Stay Right signs are posted, keep right except to pass.

If you drive slower than traffic on a highway, use the right lane whenever possible.

From the Maryland Driver's Manual, Section 5, page 32. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the MVA have the final word.
