Explanation
When turning left into a driveway, alley, or private road, you must yield the right-of-way to oncoming vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
This includes yielding to pedestrians who are crossing the driveway or road you are turning into. Always signal your intention to turn, check for traffic and pedestrians in all directions, and complete the turn only when it is safe. Failing to yield in these situations can lead to collisions or endanger pedestrians.
