If you observe a row of cones delimiting the roadway as shown in the image, what type of lane does it indicate has been enabled?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is a circumstantial additional lane. This type of lane is enabled on single-carriageway roads with two-way traffic and wide shoulders. The technique involves utilizing the shoulders and the central part of the roadway to convert two original lanes into three, thereby increasing traffic flow. Mandatory rules for driving in these sections: All vehicles (both in the central lane and the side lanes) must have their dipped headlights (low beam) on, at least, both day and night. The generic speed must be maintained between 60 km/h and 80 km/h, unless signage indicates otherwise. Why are the other options incorrect? A reversible lane is identified by double dashed road markings and square lane traffic lights, not just by cones. An HOV lane (High Occupancy Vehicle) is a fixed infrastructure intended for High Occupancy Vehicles and has its own specific signage.
