Which lane should I take for a left turn on a three-lane road?
1 Answers
When making a left turn on a three-lane road, you should enter the leftmost lane. Typically, the rightmost lane is designated for right turns, the middle lane for going straight, and the leftmost lane for left turns. Therefore, when turning left on a three-lane road, you should use the leftmost lane. The relevant regulations from the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" are as follows: 1. Article 51: At intersections with designated lanes, enter the appropriate lane based on your intended direction. Vehicles preparing to enter a roundabout must yield to vehicles already inside the roundabout. When turning left, stay to the left of the center of the intersection, use your turn signal, and at night, drive with low beams on. 2. Article 52: At intersections with traffic signs or markings, yield to the party with the right of way. At intersections without traffic signs or markings, stop before entering to observe and yield to vehicles coming from the right. Turning vehicles must yield to vehicles going straight, and right-turning vehicles from the opposite direction must yield to left-turning vehicles.
