Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
After an ordinary lawful left turn, which receiving lane may you enter under Maryland’s default rule, when no official device directs a different course?
Correct answer: Any lane lawfully open to traffic in your direction, if safe.
Why
For the ordinary left-turn situations covered by Maryland’s default rule, enter a lane lawfully available to traffic moving in your direction. Approach from the required extreme left-hand lane and complete the turn safely, yielding as required. Official devices can direct a different course, and marked adjacent turning movements must be respected. Permission to use an available lane is not permission to cut across another vehicle.
