ID-23
Passing Lane Ahead tells you an extra lane is coming, built specifically so faster traffic can pass slower vehicles safely on a two-lane highway.
Information signs guide you to services and provide general directions.
If you're slower, keep right when the lane starts and let the queue behind you pass. If passing, do it within the lane's length — don't carry a pass past where it ends.
Information and guide signs are usually green or blue rectangles. Green gives directions and distances; blue points to services like fuel, food, and lodging.
Slower vehicles keeping right in a passing lane isn't courtesy, it's the rule — and the exam frames it that way.
Road signs are one of the five areas the 30-question Alberta Class 7 knowledge test covers, and the largest block in our mock exam at 8 questions. Ready to see where you actually stand? Take the free Class 7 practice test and find out which topics are quietly costing you marks.
