Lane Use, Turning & Passing

What is the correct use of a two-way center left-turn lane marked with both yellow lines and white turn arrows?

  • A.Use it as a passing lane when traffic is slow
  • B.Use it only to slow down and wait to turn left (or to begin a left turn from a side street); never use it for passing or through travel
  • C.Drive in it for up to a mile while looking for an address
  • D.Use it as a parking lane
Correct answer

B. Use it only to slow down and wait to turn left (or to begin a left turn from a side street); never use it for passing or through travel

Why

The shared center lane exists so turning drivers can leave the traffic flow while waiting for a gap. It is not a travel or passing lane, and you should enter it near where you will turn.
