Which lane should you enter when making a right turn in Subject 3?
2 Answers
In Subject 3, you should enter the slow lane when making a right turn and the fast lane when making a left turn. Below is the relevant introduction: Road driving skill test content: preparation for getting on the car, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, gear shifting operation, changing lanes, parking by the roadside, going straight through an intersection, turning left at an intersection, turning right at an intersection, passing through a pedestrian crossing, passing through a school zone, passing through a bus stop, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making a U-turn, and driving at night. Safe and civilized driving knowledge test content: safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge of handling after traffic accidents.
Well, in the driving test for Subject 3, making a right turn is a real challenge! I remember clearly how the instructor repeatedly emphasized that the turning maneuvers must be executed perfectly. Specifically when entering the lane, you must always prioritize choosing the rightmost lane. Why? Because traffic regulations explicitly state that turning vehicles must not interfere with straight-moving traffic, especially right-turning vehicles which should keep to the right to avoid blocking the road. During the test, the examiner will closely monitor every move you make: signal the right turn at least three seconds in advance, slow down, check the mirrors and blind spots for any pedestrians or vehicles, and only proceed with the turn when it's safe. If there are multiple lanes like a dedicated right-turn lane or a regular lane, you must follow the arrow markings and choose the right lane. Never mistakenly enter the middle or left lane—that’s not only an instant point deduction but could also cause an accident. Practice simulating real road conditions often to develop good habits, and you’ll ace the test!
