The inner line is broken and the outer line is solid. If a street has a center left turn lane, you must use it when you turn left (CVC §21460.5[c]) or start a permitted U-turn. You may only drive for 200 feet in the center left turn lane. This lane is not a regular traffic lane or a passing lane. To turn left from this lane, signal and drive completely inside the center left turn lane. Do not stop with the back of your vehicle blocking traffic. Make sure the lane is clear in both directions and then turn only when it is safe. Look for vehicles coming toward you in the same lane to start their left turn..."... pg 27, 39/100 link title Your state's v/c would obviously take precedence. |

Replying to: steve_ (Jul 05, 2009 2:23 pm) In the sticks where I spent my weekend, people also like to use street parking areas as turn lanes (luckily when no cars are parked there)...they will get into the parking lane about 1/3 block before their turn, and complete it as normal

Replying to: steve_ (Jul 05, 2009 2:23 pm) I see that a lot too. People trying to merge and driving along side of you in the median.

Replying to: fintail (Jul 05, 2009 3:19 pm) To make a right on red without stopping right? I see that often around here where they use the shoulder to pass a dozen or more cars on the right and then blast around the corner without stopping.  I see more and more examples of people using "lazy" driving habits.
