Three lanes confusion target of police clampdown

POLICE will be reporting and fining all drivers who use the three-lane Nicosia-Limassol highway incorrectly, said traffic police head Demetris Demetriou yesterday.

Demetriou said that though the highway was delivered late last year, people still did not know how to use the lanes so would be launching a campaign to catch erring drivers on Monday.

Drivers who keep left and only use the middle and right lanes to overtake should be fine.  Those who overtake from the left or keep right even when there is a free lane to their left could land themselves a €65 on-the-spot fine.
