2) The driver must not drive in the right lane unless:
(a) the driver is turning right, or making a U-turn from the centre of the road, and is giving a right change of direction signal, or
(b) the driver is overtaking, or
(c) a left lane must turn left sign or left traffic lane arrows apply to any other lane and the driver is not turning left, or
(d) the driver is required to drive in the right lane under rule 159, or
(e) the driver is avoiding an obstruction, or
(f) the traffic in each other lane is congested, or
(g) the traffic in every lane is congested.
the big one to me is the first one. there is no indication at all how far in advance of turning right you can go into the lane. many people seem to think several kms is ok. Contrast this to RR158 that specifically says you can only drive in a bus lane for 100m.
