Sec. 545.060.  DRIVING ON ROADWAY LANED FOR TRAFFIC.  (a)  An operator on a roadway divided into two or more clearly marked lanes for traffic:

(2)  in preparing to make a left turn;  or
(3)  where the center lane is designated by an official traffic-control device for movement in the direction in which the operator is moving.
(c)  Without regard to the center of the roadway, an official traffic-control device may be erected directing slow-moving traffic to use a designated lane or designating lanes to be used by traffic moving in a particular direction.
(d)  Official traffic-control devices prohibiting the changing of lanes on sections of roadway may be installed.
