Should you change into the left lane in this situation, leaving the right lane for slower vehicles?

Description

In this situation, are you obliged to change to the left lane, leaving the right lane for vehicles that are driving slower?
Explanation

Correct answer: No

In Poland, you must drive on the right. According to Art. 16 para. 4 of the Road Traffic Act, on a carriageway with at least two lanes for traffic in the same direction, the driver is obliged to use the far-right lane. The left lane is primarily for overtaking, not for continuous driving, so when the right lane is free, you should continue your journey in it.
