Question: On a multi-lane highway, slower traffic should:

Answer options:

  • Stay in the left lane ✅ Stay in the right lane
  • Use any lane
  • Use the shoulder

Correct answer: Stay in the right lane

Explanation: According to the BC Motor Vehicle Act, slower vehicles must stay in the right lane to keep the left lane open for overtaking. Staying in the left lane or choosing any lane impedes the flow of traffic and violates provincial keep-right laws, while the shoulder is reserved strictly for emergencies rather than regular driving. Understanding this "keep right except to pass" rule is highly relevant for the ICBC Class 7 knowledge test, which frequently evaluates lane etiquette to ensure new drivers maintain safe highway speeds and prevent aggressive tailgating.
