Truckers 3rd Land ViolationsTruck drivers that run in the 3rd lane are at rick of getting a ticket and a fine. In many states a semi truck is restricted to using the right two lanes only. But there area also many instances where a trucker may use the 3rd lane with out braking the law. Knowing when you can use the 3rd lane by educating yourself will save you money and time. For example most steep mountain climbs will almost all be restricted. The reason behind this of course is due to the fact the most semi trucks can not keep up with the posted speed. In order to keep traffic flowing properly each state will restrict semi trucks from the 3rd lane in order to allow the rest of the traffic flowing. Driving in cities will also restrict truckers from running in the 3rd lane due to the flow of traffic. Most of these area will have posted signs warning the truck driver of which lanes he may travel in so there is normally no excuse to be in the 3rd lane. https://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/thr
