Can You Turn Right When the Road Only Has a Straight Arrow Mark?
1 Answers
If the road only has a straight arrow mark, you cannot turn right—doing so is a traffic violation. To make a right turn, you must enter the right-turn lane in advance. Turning right from a straight-only lane is not allowed, and if caught by traffic cameras, you may face fines and penalty points. Below are some precautions for making right turns while driving: (1) When driving in an unfamiliar area or city, you can use your phone’s navigation app, which will inform you about the number of lanes ahead and their purposes, helping you avoid entering the wrong lane. (2) If you intended to turn right but accidentally entered a straight-only lane, don’t panic—simply continue straight and make a U-turn at the next intersection.
