Explanation
When making turns, you should go from one lane to the other as directly as possible, without interfering with traffic or crossing lane lines. Turn from the lane that is closest to the direction you want to go, and turn into the lane closest to the one you came from. This means that you should turn into the left lane when making a left turn, and turn into the right lane when making a right turn. To turn left on multi-lane streets and highways, always start from the left lane.
