What should you do?
Check your mirrors early, adjust your speed and move into the continuing lane only when there is a safe gap. Follow the lane markings and avoid a last-second merge.
How to recognise it
Look for a yellow diamond with two black lane lines: the right line curves into the straight left line, showing that the right-hand lane ends.
Common confusion
Lane loss is different from a road-narrows warning. Lane loss means a traffic lane ends; road narrows warns that the carriageway becomes narrower without necessarily changing the lane count.
