In Washington State, on a highway with three or more lanes going in one direction, faster vehicles should use

  1. The leftmost lane

  2. The rightmost lane

  3. The middle lane

  4. Any lane without restrictions

The correct answer is: The middle lane

Faster vehicles should use the middle lane because it provides a balance between speed and safety. The leftmost lane is typically reserved for passing, not continuous high speeds. The rightmost lane is usually intended for merging in and out of the highway, so it is not recommended for faster vehicles. The middle lane is often the most suitable for maintaining a consistent speed, especially in heavy traffic or when there are exits and entrances along the highway. Using any lane without restrictions may lead to slower traffic passing on the right, which can be unsafe.
