Which Side Has Priority When Two Left-Turn Lanes Turn Simultaneously?
1 Answers
The vehicle on the right has priority when two cars turn left simultaneously. Here are the specific details: 1. When two cars turn left at the same time, if there are no lane markings at the curve, theoretically, it should be handled as 'simultaneously changing lanes toward the middle lane,' so the principle of 'left vehicle yields to the right vehicle' should be followed. 2. Yield to straight-going vehicles: When turning, whether left or right, you must yield to straight-going vehicles. Do not assume that just signaling and continuing the turn is sufficient. If the straight-going vehicle is moving quickly and a collision occurs, you will be fully at fault. 3. Yield to left-turning vehicles: At an intersection, if you are turning right and the opposing vehicle is turning left, you must yield to the left-turning vehicle. This is because left turns are more difficult and occupy more road resources. In comparison, right turns are easier, so right-turning vehicles should yield to left-turning ones.
