- 2Check mirrors and look over the left shoulder to verify the center turn lane is clear of other vehicles.
- 3Smoothly transition completely into the shared center turn lane and decelerate.
- 4Stop or slow down inside the center lane and yield right-of-way to all oncoming traffic.

Cevap
The correct chronological order for using a center two-way left-turn lane is: (1) Activate turn signal at least 100 feet ahead, (2) Check mirrors and left blind spot, (3) Transition completely into the center lane and slow down, (4) Stop in the center lane and yield to oncoming vehicles, and (5) Complete the turn into the driveway when clear.
The safe procedural sequence requires signaling early (at least 100 feet prior), performing mirror and blind-spot checks before changing lanes, fully entering the shared center left-turn lane to decelerate safely, yielding to oncoming straight-through traffic while waiting in the center lane, and finally completing the turn into the driveway once clear.
