- Move to the right lane, near the truck.
- Stop in your lane until the lights stop.
- Slow down and move to the left lane.

Correct answer: Slow down and move to the left lane.
This is the move-over rule. Slow down and move to the left lane if it is safe. Go back to the right lane after you pass the truck and the workers.
