Identify your destination lane before a multi-lane turn and stay within your own turning path beside other vehicles.
Identify your destination lane before a multi-lane turn and stay within your own turning path beside other vehicles.
Each section below follows an explanation or demonstration in the video. Select a section to play from that point, then practise the skill with appropriate supervision.
At an intersection with more than one turn lane, neighbouring vehicles may turn at the same time. Know which receiving lane belongs to your path before entering the turn so you do not drift into another driver's lane.
Notice which side of your car the dotted guide line is on and keep that relationship throughout the turn. This reference helps maintain separation from the adjacent turning vehicle.
If the guide line is difficult to see, inspect the receiving lanes while waiting and identify your lane's continuation. Follow signs and lane guidance; do not turn into whichever lane happens to look convenient.
