Question

Difficulty: EasyTurning Procedures and Signaling

When preparing to execute a right turn at an intersection in a standard passenger vehicle, a driver is legally permitted to swing wide to the left into an adjacent lane before initiating the turn.

Answer: Answer

Answer

False. Standard passenger vehicle drivers must remain as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway when turning right and are not permitted to swing wide into adjacent lanes.
The statement is false because standard passenger cars must complete right turns close to the right curb or road edge rather than swinging wide into neighboring lanes.
