The diagrams I see (such as on page 71) actually show only one lane in each direction (i.e. a two-lane road), but with the single lane divided into thirds to indicate different riding positions. I.e. normally riding toward the right part of the lane (position '3') but moving toward the center (position '2') if there are parked cars or other hazards and toward the left (position '1') if preparing for a left turn. The whole guide seems appropriately geared toward riding on local neighborhood residential streets for going to school or visiting nearby friends.
