    2 lanes in your direction: use right lane except to pass (unless sign says use left lane)

    3 lanes in your direction: use right lane except to pass (unless sign says other lanes permitted)

    4 or more lanes in your direction: use right or lane immediately to left of right lane (unless otherwise instructed by signage)
