Explanation
When making a left turn, you must yield to any traffic coming from the opposite direction. This means that you must check for any oncoming vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians. Before you make the turn, reduce your speed, and signal your intent to turn well in advance. Check for traffic in all directions, and when the way is clear, make the left turn.
