Guy I work with had a minor accident over the weekend when joining a dual carriageway.
Similar to the drawing below:
But instead of joining in the "slow" lane, he joined in the passing lane, due to the inside lane having traffic in it.
He joined the passing lane, accellerating hard, but a guy in the inside lane attempted to pass a car in his lane, and impacted with the newly joined car.
Question is: Is it legal / permitted to join a dual carriage in the same manner as the drawing above, but join the passing lane?
