Practice question

According to the New York Driver's Manual, what is the proper technique for making a left turn at an intersection with a dedicated left-turn lane?

  1. Turn from the lane closest to the center line into whichever receiving lane is open, including a far lane if it appears clear at the end of the turn
  2. Move into the dedicated left-turn lane well in advance, signal, yield to oncoming traffic, and complete the turn into the nearest lane of the cross street
  3. Accelerate through the turn before approaching traffic reaches the intersection, rather than yielding and selecting a safe gap in oncoming traffic
  4. Turn left from the right travel lane whenever the designated left-turn lane is occupied, even if this crosses another travel lane during the maneuver

Answer: B — Move into the dedicated left-turn lane well in advance, signal, yield to oncoming traffic, and complete the turn into the nearest lane of the cross street
