Question 3318

On a road section through a built-up area (travesía) with two lanes in each direction, may you drive in the second lane to turn left?

  1. No, because on a travesía I must always keep to the right.
  2. Yes, because on a travesía I must drive in the same way as on urban roads.
  3. No, because a travesía is a road outside a built-up area.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because on a travesía I must drive in the same way as on urban roads.

On a road section through a built-up area, you may use the left lane in your direction to prepare for a permitted left turn. You must move into position in advance and yield the right-of-way when changing lanes.
