What does the innermost lane mean?
1 Answers
The innermost lane actually refers to the leftmost lane of a multi-lane carriageway, which is adjacent to the road centerline, while the rightmost lane is called the outermost lane. Generally, when driving on highways, the innermost lane is commonly known as the overtaking lane. Here are some relevant details: 1. On multi-lane roads, the right side in the direction of vehicle travel is considered the outer side, while the left side is the inner side. For highways, the innermost lane is the so-called overtaking lane, which is adjacent to the road centerline or median barrier. The typical speed limit for this lane is 100 km/h to 120 km/h. 2. The inner lane refers to the lane closest to the road centerline on a multi-lane carriageway. According to Article 44 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law", when there are two or more motor vehicle lanes in the same direction, the left lane is designated as the fast lane, and the right lane is the slow lane. Vehicles traveling in the fast lane should maintain the speed specified for that lane. If a vehicle cannot reach the specified speed of the fast lane, it should move to the slow lane.
