A driver may make a right turn at an intersection from which lane?

• A. Only from the lane next to the right curb
• B. From the right-most lane, or from another lane marked for a right turn
• C. Only if other drivers are turning from the additional lane
• D. From any lane

Answer: (B)

Turning right at an intersection should be done from a lane that is intended for turning. You may turn from the right-most lane, which sits closest to the curb, or from any other lane that is specifically marked for a right turn (often with a right-turn arrow). These lanes are designated to guide traffic safely through the turn and to avoid conflicts with vehicles going straight or turning left. You should not attempt a right turn from a lane that isn’t marked for turning, as that can disrupt other traffic and create a hazard. Always signal your turn and yield to pedestrians and other vehicles in the intersection.
