Question 3898
On this two-way road, where should the driver of the white passenger car position their vehicle to turn left?
- Next to the broken line, without encroaching into the opposite direction.
- On the broken line, slightly encroaching into the opposite direction.
- On the right, off the roadway whenever possible.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Next to the broken line, without encroaching into the opposite direction.
On a two-way road, you prepare for a left turn from your own lane, close to the line separating the directions of traffic, without entering the oncoming side. You may cross the broken line in the image when turning, but you must not position yourself on it to prepare for the turn. Moving off the roadway to the right is what human-powered cycles (ciclos) and two-wheeled mopeds do on roads outside built-up areas without a turning lane.
