What are the three types of turning lanes?

Turning lanes are divided into: left turn, right turn, and straight. Introduction to the Steering System: A series of devices used to change or maintain the direction of a car's movement or reverse is called the car steering system (steering-system). The function of the car steering system is to control the driving direction of the car according to the driver's will. Technical Features of the Steering System: During driving, the car often needs to change its direction according to the driver's intention, which is called car steering. For wheeled vehicles, the method to achieve car steering is that the driver uses a specially designed mechanism to make the wheels (steering wheels) on the car's steering axle (usually the front axle) deflect a certain angle relative to the car's longitudinal axis.
Over the years of driving, I've encountered many steering issues. Steering geometries mainly fall into three types: Ackermann steering, parallel steering, and anti-Ackermann steering. Ackermann is the most common, where the inner wheel turns at a greater angle than the outer wheel during turns, reducing tire wear and providing more stable handling - most family cars use this. Parallel steering means both wheels turn at the same angle, simple but prone to tire scrubbing, sometimes found in older or modified cars - I don't recommend it. Anti-Ackermann steering has the outer wheel turning at a greater angle, mostly used in high-performance sports cars for better cornering grip, though the setup is quite complicated. I've dealt with steering vibration issues several times, like rapid tire wear or skidding during turns - always due to improper geometry. If your car feels off after long use, get it checked immediately; don't wait until you lose control at high speeds - safety first. During maintenance, pay attention to steering angles, and if you can't adjust it yourself, visit a professional shop.
