Question 4785

If the passenger car wants to turn left, it must…

  1. move off the roadway and make the turn from there.
  2. turn from its lane without entering the opposing traffic lane.
  3. turn from its lane while entering the opposing traffic lane.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: turn from its lane without entering the opposing traffic lane.

The roadway in the image has two-way traffic, with a broken line in the center. To turn left, the passenger car moves close to that line within its own lane and does not enter the oncoming side until making the turn. Moving off the roadway to turn is what human-powered cycles (ciclos) and two-wheeled mopeds do on roads outside built-up areas.
