[Effective July 1, 2026.]","body":"1. If a highway has two or more clearly marked lanes for traffic traveling in one direction, vehicles must:\n(a) Be driven as nearly as practicable entirely within a single lane; and\n(b) Not be moved from that lane until the driver has given the appropriate turn signal and ascertained that such movement can be made with safety.\n2. Upon a highway which has been divided into three clearly marked lanes, a vehicle must not be driven in the extreme left lane at any time. A vehicle on such a highway must not be driven in the center lane except:\n(a) When overtaking and passing another vehicle where the highway is clearly visible and the center lane is clear of traffic for a safe distance;\n(b) In preparation for a left turn; or\n(c) When the center lane is allocated exclusively to traffic moving in the direction in which the vehicle is proceeding and a sign is posted to give notice of such allocation.\n3. If a highway has been designed to provide a single center lane to be used only for turning by traffic moving in both directions, the following rules apply:\n(a) A vehicle may be driven in the center turn lane only for the purpose of making a left-hand turn onto or from the highway.\n(b) A vehicle must not travel more than 200 feet in a center turn lane before making a left-hand turn from the highway.\n(c) A vehicle must not travel more than 50 feet in a center turn lane after making a left-hand turn onto the highway before merging with traffic.\n4. If a highway has been designed to provide a single right lane to be used only for turning, a vehicle must:\n(a) Be driven in the right turn lane only for the purpose of making a right turn; and\n(b) While being driven in the right turn lane, not travel through an intersection.\n5. A person who violates any provision of this section may be subject to any additional penalty set forth in NRS 484B.130, 484B.135 or 484B.370.","path":["TITLE 43 — PUBLIC SAFETY; VEHICLES; WATERCRAFT","CHAPTER 484B - RULES OF THE ROAD","DIRECTION OF TRAVEL; OVERTAKING AND PASSING"],"source_url":"https://www.leg.state.nv.us/NRS/NRS-484B.html","current_through":"2025 session (NRS as revised 2026-08-25)","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-03T05:51:41Z","sha256":"17dd1fc44474b5f7c5114bd689a7d90280023468f12854fcba2e0dca1ee26974","source_id":"us-nv","stale":true,"prev":"us-nv/nrs-484b.223","next":"us-nv/nrs-484b.227"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
