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.
