Explanation
When making a left turn on a two-lane, two-way street or highway, it is important to position yourself correctly to ensure a safe and smooth maneuver. Starting the left turn close to the center line is the correct approach. By doing so, you can maximize your visibility of oncoming traffic and make a clear judgment of when it is safe to proceed. As you enter the intersection, it is important to continue turning into the extreme left lane of the road you are entering.
