Question juridique clé
Whether using the emergency lane to overtake queued traffic and reach an exit constituted a medium-serious traffic offense requiring a mandatory license withdrawal.
Solution extraite
Yes. The conduct created a relevant risk and was not merely slight; a one-month withdrawal was mandatory under the road traffic rules.
Motifs extraits
Emergency-lane use to overtake right-hand traffic is prohibited and creates a real risk for other road users. The respondent’s short distance did not make the fault or danger particularly slight, so the offense was medium-serious.
