(a) Upon a roadway with one lane in the direction of travel, a person proceeding at a speed that is sufficiently low as to create a traffic hazard, including when operating an animal-drawn vehicle upon a roadway or shoulder of a roadway, must operate the vehicle as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway. (b) Upon a roadway with more than one lane in the same direction of travel, a person must move out of the left-most lane to allow another vehicle to pass, when practicable under existing conditions. A left-most lane under this paragraph is the lane adjacent to one designated and posted for a specific type of traffic, including as provided under section 160.93. This paragraph does not apply when: (1) overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction; (2) preparing for a left turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway; (3) preparing to exit a controlled-access highway on the left side of the road; (4) the lane is designated and posted for a specific type of traffic; or (5) the vehicle is an authorized emergency vehicle.
