On an urban road with three lanes in the same direction demarcated by longitudinal markings, which lane should you use?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

On urban roads (inside built-up areas), when there is more than one lane in the same direction and they are separated by lines, the general rule differs from that on roads. You are not obliged to drive strictly in the right lane; the driver may use the lane that best suits their destination (for example, to prepare for a left or right turn ahead). If the lanes were not marked (painted), you would be required to drive on the right.
