The Traffic Division would like to reiterate and remind all motorists of the lane-changing rules to ensure road safety and smooth traffic flow on double-lane roads.
All drivers are advised to strictly follow the rules as below:
1. Always overtake from the right lane.
2. Use the left lane when driving at a lower speed.
3. Use the right lane for higher speeds, but do not exceed the prescribed speed limit.
4. Always use the appropriate indicator when changing lanes.
5. Give way to vehicles that are signaling their intention to change lanes.
6. Do not change lanes where there is a continuous, unbroken line on the road.
7. Change lanes only where there is a broken line, and only after signaling and ensuring it is safe to do so.
8. Always check mirrors and blind spots before switching lanes.
The Traffic Division urges all road users to follow these rules responsibly to prevent accidents and promote safe driving culture.
