When you make a left turn from a two-way road into a four-lane highway, you must:

Enter the right lane, to the left of the center line.
Go straight through the intersection, and then make the turn.
Enter the left lane, to the right of the center line.
Enter the right lane. When traffic permits, you can move out of the left lane.
Explanation

When turning left from a two-way road onto a four-lane highway (with two lanes in each direction), approach the turn as close to the center line as possible, staying on the right side of the road.
Make the turn before reaching the center of the intersection, and enter the highway in the left lane closest to the center line: this is usually the passing lane of the highway. Once you've completed the turn and it is safe to do so, move to the right lane to allow faster traffic to pass.

Key Points:
- Do not cross lane markings when turning.
- Enter the nearest lane in your direction of travel.
- Signal and check traffic before changing lanes after the turn.

This ensures a smooth and safe transition onto a multi-lane highway.
