New South Wales · Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) · Road rules

When turning left at an intersection, where should you turn from and into?

The answer

  • From the right lane if it's faster
  • From any lane into any lane
  • From the left side of the road into the left side of the road you're entering Correct
  • From the centre of the road

Why that's the answer

Left turns are made from the left — approach as close to the left as practical and turn into the left side of the road you're entering.
