Drive close to the right hand side of the road.

Explanation

When you are preparing to make a left turn from a two-way street, you need to position their vehicle in the correct lane. Moving into the lane closest to the center line allows you to make the turn safely and efficiently. This also helps to ensure that you do not interfere with traffic headed toward you that wants to turn left. Once in the correct lane, use your turn signals and check traffic in your mirrors before making the turn.
