You are driving along a major road and intend to turn right into a side road. Traffic is approaching from the opposite direction, and pedestrians are waiting to cross the mouth of the junction. Which TWO actions must you take before completing your turn?

  1. Wait near the centre line for a safe gap in oncoming traffic, giving priority to pedestrians crossing the side roadCevap
  2. B
    Cut sharply across the corner of the junction mouth to exit the main carriageway as quickly as possible
  3. Check mirrors and blind spots for approaching cyclists or motorcyclists filtering alongside before turningCevap
  4. D
    Proceed immediately if an oncoming driver flashes their headlights, taking it as a signal that you have right of way

Cevap

Wait near the centre line for a safe gap in oncoming traffic while giving priority to pedestrians crossing the side road, and check mirrors and blind spots for filtering cyclists or motorcyclists before turning.
When turning right into a side road, drivers must hold their position near the centre line until there is a safe gap in oncoming traffic. Under Highway Code Rule H2 and Rule 170, drivers must give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross the side road into which you are turning. Furthermore, comprehensive mirror and blind spot checks are mandatory to check for filtering cyclists or motorcyclists who may be passing before you cross the oncoming lane.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Position the vehicle correctly near the centre line of the major road and assess oncoming traffic and junction hazards.
The vehicle is positioned safely without obstructing following traffic unnecessarily, keeping oncoming lanes in full view.
Proper positioning indicates your intention to other road users and allows vehicles behind to pass on the left if space permits.
2
Perform thorough observations for vulnerable road users, including pedestrians at the junction mouth and filtering two-wheelers.
Comprehensive awareness of pedestrians crossing the side road and cyclists or motorcyclists in your blind spots.
Highway Code Rule H2 establishes that pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross a junction have priority, while filtering cyclists and motorcyclists may be hidden from mirror view.
3
Complete the turn only when a safe gap opens and the entrance is clear, taking a proper turning arc into the correct lane.
A controlled, safe manoeuvre that avoids conflicting with oncoming or emerging traffic.
Cutting the corner encroaches on the oncoming lane of the side road and endangers emerging traffic, particularly larger vehicles that need wider turning sweeps.
