You use a two-way left-turn lane. Where must you enter it?

  3. After you pass the place where you will turn.
  4. At any place on the road.
Show answer

Correct answer: Close to the place where you will turn.

Vehicles from both directions share this lane. A short time in the lane lowers the risk of a head-on collision.
