Practice question

When turning left from a two-way street onto a one-way street, where should you turn into?

  1. Turn into any lane
  2. Turn into the first lane
  3. Turn into the second lane
  4. Turn into the third lane

Answer: B — Turn into the first lane

When turning left from a two-way street onto a one-way street, you should turn into the first lane. This is because it allows for a smoother flow of traffic and ensures that you are in the correct lane as you complete your turn onto the one-way street. Turning into any lane (Choice A) might disrupt traffic patterns and potentially lead to unsafe driving conditions. Similarly, turning into the second or third lane (Choices C and D) is incorrect because you should always start by turning into the nearest lane when making a turn.
