On the first and last one cited, I agree. On the traffic separation zone, I
don't think it would make a difference. Just because someone is using the
correct lane for their course, doesn't give them license to ignore the other
rules.



That could depend on the application of Rule 10 (j)

(j) A vessel of less than 20 meters in length or a sailing vessel
shall not impede the safe passage of a power driven vessel following a
traffic lane.

This would not apply as Roger's chart does not show a TSZ.
