Explanation

In this situation, considering the meaning of the orientation sign, which informs us that in 150 meters the traffic lane on the left side will end, you must remain behind the truck. If you had moved to the second lane, you would have been forced in 150 meters to return to the first lane, because the second lane ends.

We must take into account that the overtaking maneuver creates obligations both for the one who overtakes and for the one who is to be overtaken. Among the obligations of the one who performs the overtaking maneuver is also the obligation to re-enter the initial lane or traffic row after signalling and making sure that they can perform this maneuver in safe conditions for the overtaken vehicle and for the other road users. Considering this obligation, it is recommended in this situation to remain behind the truck.

The correct answer is: B
