[2.46] A50 North of Arnhem - Incorrect road lanes marking

[Granite]

Hello,

Short section of A50 in Netherlands, between the two interchanges North of Arnhem has really weird and confusing lane marking, especially when AI traffic is involved.
The coordinates: (sec-0004-0003);-14674.6;31.9471;-9811.78;2.87805;-0.183722

The problem:
It's a 3 lane motorway, but the rightmost lane, in both direction looks like as if it was hard shoulder, it is divided by solid white line (yellow arrows), and on both ends, the lanes are terminated by diagonal solid white lines (red arrows). AI traffic happily drives and merges through these lines.

These diagonal lines should be removed, and the rightmost lanes should be divided by short dashed lines, as merging/exit lanes. throught the whole lenght of this section.

Sorry if this was intended, but it looks and feels really confusing.

Hi,

this is not a bug - this is a two lane road, where the hard shoulder is open for traffic.

look like this:

OK then, I have't seen something like this before.
Regarding the depiction of signs you have provided, the first one is indeed there, on both ends.

One more question:
When fast AI vehicle drives behind slower one on this hard shoulder lane, it will overtake and cross the solid line (those marked by yellow arrows). Is this allowed in reality, and shouln't you only enter hard shoulder, if you are going to take next exit, and then you should stay there?

This is indeed a real-life situation that we accurately brought forward in the game.

In Germany they call this system "Seitenstreifen befahren" or in Dutch "Spitsstrookrijden". The shoulder is converted to be open for traffic during peak hours to reduce congestion
