Road SignsDifficulty: 1/5

You are driving a heavily loaded car uphill and see a road sign showing an extra lane opening on the left, marked as a crawler (climbing) lane. Traffic is building up behind you. What should you do?

Explanation

According to the Highway Code, Rule 139, climbing and crawler lanes are provided on some hills. You should use this lane if you are driving a slow-moving vehicle or if there are vehicles behind you wishing to overtake. The road sign showing an extra lane indicates where the crawler lane begins. Moving into it allows faster traffic to pass safely. You should also watch for signs and road markings showing where the crawler lane ends.
