In this situation, are you allowed to occupy more than one lane?

You are driving along a two-way road with lanes marked by a broken line. Although the roadway is wide and traffic is light, you must not drive "astride" the line or occupy both lanes. A driver must keep as close as possible to the right edge of the roadway and occupy only one lane.

The Road Traffic Act states that a driver must drive as close as possible to the right edge of the roadway, and if lanes are marked on the roadway, the driver must not occupy more than one lane. On this road the left lane belongs to oncoming traffic - driving onto the centre line is a direct risk of a head-on collision with a vehicle coming from the opposite direction.

Legal basis: Art. 16 para. 1 and 4 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
