The left lane.
When completing a left turn, you should turn into the lane that is closest to you on the road you are entering, usually the leftmost lane. Ensure that the lane is clear of oncoming traffic and pedestrians before making the turn. Additionally, always signal your intention to turn and check your mirrors and blind spots for safety.
the left lane
Always turn in to the lane closest to you (e.g. making a right turn onto a highway you should turn into the right lane).Turning from the highway depends upon which you are going, if left turns are premitted (some require left turns from the right lane only) So you must check the rules for that particular road. Unless there are other vehicles trying to come on to the intersection then you should just simply move to the left.
A shared left lane is used to turn left by both directions of traffic. A regular left lane is only used by one direction flow of traffic
If it is a shared TRAVEL lane - the threat is oncoming traffic coming right at you head on. If it is a shared TURN lane, you must be cautious that someone from the opposite lane of travel doesn't suddenly decide to turn left at the same you want to turn left, and you wind up sharing the same portion of the lane.
If the lane is specifically marked as a Left Turn Only lane then yes.
Any turn going left from any of the right lanes is an illegal turn. However, if you signal into any of the two left lanes (assuming the white lines are dashed and not solid), you can make a legal left turn from any of the two left turn lanes. Treat it like a four-laned intersection without the street lights and without a lane going straight. You must turn into your lane accordingly.
In most states, you can legally travel up to 200 feet in a left turn center lane before merging back into the regular traffic lane.
If you are turning left from a one way street onto another one way street, you can make a left on red. However, they must both be one way streets.You can turn left from either lane so long as you continue into the current lane you are in. As in if you are in the right lane, you must turn left and stay in the furthest right lane. And vise versa.Added: CAUTION - not all states allow left hand turns on red under the circumstances described in the question - unless allowed by posted sign or appropriate traffic signal display.
