This statement is TRUE
Explanation
Article 68 bans "joint dangerous acts" (kyodo kiken koi): when two or more drivers of automobiles or mopeds drive two or more vehicles in a line or side by side on the road, they must not act together in a way that seriously endangers traffic or causes serious nuisance to others. Driving in a line is not itself illegal — the offence is the joint dangerous or disruptive conduct.
