Passing target: 80% (24/30)
You drive on a five-lane street. The center lane is marked as a two-way left-turn lane for traffic from both directions. For which move may you use this center lane?
A travels in the inner right-hand through lane of a five-lane street. Two through lanes carry each direction; the shared center lane has opposing left-turn arrows and solid-outside, broken-inside yellow boundaries. A driveway is on the left ahead.
Correct answer: To slow down and wait for a gap before you turn left into a driveway
Why
Drivers from both directions share this one lane, so a driver in it can meet another driver face to face. That is why the handbook limits the lane to left-turn moves and bans passing and merging in it. Its markings are a lane-use control that you must obey. When you turn left out of a driveway onto a street like this, stop, yield to all traffic and pedestrians, and go only when you can reach a through lane in one move.
