How wide are traffic lanes normally?

  1. 1 mile

  2. 2 miles

  3. 3 miles

  4. 4 miles

The correct answer is: 3 miles

Traffic lanes are typically much smaller than a mile, which eliminates options A and B as possibilities. The width of a lane can vary depending on the type of road, with smaller lanes of around 10-12 feet being common on city streets and larger lanes of 12-14 feet being more typical on highways. However, 3 miles is still an excessively large width for a traffic lane, making option D incorrect. Therefore, option C, 3 miles, is not a realistic answer for the normal width of a traffic lane.
