Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
You are stopped at a red light in the left lane of a one-way street. The cross street is also one-way, and its traffic moves to your left. No sign prohibits turns on red. What may you do?
Northbound A is stopped in the left lane of a one-way approach. The cross street travels left; the signal is red.
Correct answer: Turn left after a full stop, once pedestrians and cross traffic are clear.
Why
This left turn on red works like a right turn on red, because no oncoming traffic crosses your path. The turn is not allowed from a one-way street onto a two-way street. Turn into the lane nearest the left curb of the new street.
