Explanation
When preparing to make a left turn, you must start from the correct lane, depending on the type of road and intersection. At some intersections, left turns are permitted only from the far-left lane. In other cases, multiple left-turn lanes may be provided, as indicated by pavement markings and signs with left-turn arrows. On some three-lane roads, a center turn lane is designated for vehicles turning left from either direction. Always watch for signs and road markings to determine the correct lane, and use your turn signal to clearly communicate your intentions to other drivers.
