It's called a "hook turn" and is used to reduce delays to trams. The procedure for making a hook turn is to first wait for the green light, then pull into the intersection as left as possible, and then wait for the light on the intersecting road to turn green, which is when you may finally turn right.

+aldrick barber In my understanding, a protected left turn is when you see the green left arrow, and then you are "protected by law" to proceed and turn, regardless of oncoming traffic, but you still need to yield to pedestrians, if any, even if they're crossing illegally. Guess why I know that? Because the first time I failed, it was because a pedestrian illegally running across the street when I had my protected turn under the greed arrow! And yeah, pedestrians are ALWAYS the boss, so I was failed...

If there's only a green ball without any arrows, it usually an unprotected left turn. Though in some situations the intersection may be configured for only 1 approach having a green light at a time. (In many Canadian provinces excluding BC a flashing green light indicates that). Left turn lanes are not required for a protected left turn. There are many narrow roads without them. Just use common sense. If the light turns green and oncoming cars are stopped, it's likely that they have a red light, and in that case you should be good to go. On the other hand, if they proceed, then it is an unprotected left turn and you should follow the advice given in this video.

Left turns can be sketchy, especially in the case where a large vehicle is blocking your vision to oncoming traffic. But a bit of practice is all you need and you will get used to it.

This video is 5 star and covers all angles... some comments make this video out to be dramatic but the bottom line is that car accidents are costly mistakes. Car accidents are not on purpose. This video displays a defensive driver or a driver who thinks for “everyone” We can pick up bad driving habits because we drive and get away with stuff but we can always drive better . We must remain students of life , we must remain students while driving just remembering we can always learn something different/new along the way I have driving experience of 6+ years. Car accidents are more dependent on driving habits (good and/or bad) . You can be a Great driver! You still are not exempt from car accidents ! Don’t be hard headed, see the biggest picture !

Many experienced drivers still fail to understand some of the rules, left turns are a major cause of traffic accidents. Biggest takeaway is do not rush it, the worst case scenario is making the left turn after the light turned red which is perfectly fine as long as you are already in the intersection.

Who would rather take a huge circle to get to your destination than to turn left and look front for incoming cars? It's scary man

Nah, we just cater to too many drivers. Driving is a skill and we treat it like the lowest common denominator.

Hello Sir, Thank you for your informative videos. 👍👍

Do you have the same kind of dramitization for right turns? I love this one but need one for right turns.

I don't know about other Countries but in Germany you learn somthing like that in driving school.

This is why most delivery vehicles end up taking rights turns rather than left turns, since they can save so much more money and even time in some cases. It really tells you something...

If you can strategically order your destinations so that you only take right turns, it can be a huge time saver. The one thing a delivery driver has that most drivers do not have, is the flexibility to re-arrange the sequence of destinations.

amazing info! so many things covered

Much love from Ghana❤🇬🇭

There are some intersections without left turn lanes nor lights that are borderline impossible to cross. The only way to turn is to wait for traffic to stop at a red and immediately turn before the light turns green for the cross roads.

Turning left at the same time a vehicle is turning right into the adjacent lane is permitted here. Both drivers are to turn into their inner most lane. Doesn't always work out that way.

Question, if you are coming up to an unprotected light that Is green, do you automatically inch into the intersection or do u stop then slowly inch

Hi, i just wonder which software has been used to make this video, thanks in advance

How far enough does the oncoming cars that are coming straight and oncoming cars turning right have to be for you to make a turn left? Having trouble with judging the distance

This is helpful I’m a new driver and forgot the 2nd one no one was turning infront of me and they were turning the others way but I didn’t know if I could go or not but I still went and now know…I was wrong and need to wait for everyone

Good video. Thank you!! 😀

@ 1:00 Both cars can proceeded to safety turn on a green. THERE ARE NO RULES BYLAWS OR LAWS IN ALBERTA about two cars going the opposite direction with one turning left into their designated lane while a car turning right at the same time in to its designated lane. If a car passes the line and hits another that driver is at fault. Dash cam footage is key in these situations because for the insurance company to determine fault its as easy as seeing which car had to swing back into their lane after the impact. Without dash cam footage it can be a little tricky to determine who took the turn wide. This maneuver is no more difficult then taking a double left turn with a vehicle turning beside you, almost treat it with the same rules (if the vehicle taking the right while you are taking left turn is a bigger truck or semi with a wider turn angle maybe let them turn first and don't block the intersection incase of on coming traffic but if its some small sedan both of you should be able to turn lane in to lane)

I'm so scared... I can do it!

Thanks for your wonderful videos,please make dome for:following the bus&passing the bus, following the signals drawn on the road, of right,left &straight into the junction /trafic lights😢

Correct approaches start at 1:36

Ok that was the explanation to easy situations. What about when you are in the middle of intersection and the light turns yellow? What about when that happens and a pedestrian is on the crosswalk while the signal is turning from yellow to red? That kind of stuff is the hard parts...

Hi Lauro, good questions! If you have entered the intersection and are waiting to turn as the light changes, you want to make sure that the oncoming traffic is coming to a stop, and that the crosswalk is clear, then proceed to complete the turn and clear the intersection once you have confirmed it is safe. The important part is to not panic, and make sure you are safe to proceed.

@AlbertaMotorAssociation

Unfortunately, I cannot see the part in the video that shows two left-turning vehicles in a collision. If you mean where one is turning left and the other is turning right, this is an unsafe manoeuvre. Though legal, it is not recommended due to the increased crash risk.

@lauroneto3360

Thanks for that. about the pedestrian again. So I should only turn the wheel and began to accelerate only when no pedestrians are in the crosswalk anymore? Because that would block the traffic for sure. Some pedestrian takes a lot of time to cross the street. Or should I turn and accelerate and them I stop at the incoming crosswalk? Know what I mean?

About both doing left turn. I mean two cars on opposite direction turning left at the same time. Look what I did on the link, I use the same radius of curvature and look what happened. I basically dont know how much to do because one time is to short and the other is too wide. Its seems pretty arbitrary. postimg.org/image/he1j58bq5/

Thank you. Well demonstrated ❤

Very helpful! Thanks!

In the situation where the truck is coming from the opposite side and also trying to turn left... which vehicle turns left first? You or the truck? The animation makes it look like a stalemate

The solution is to never turn left, always keep turning right until you're in the correct direction.

It's called a roundabout

Thank you. This is very helpful

I’m confused. If the light is green and I am turning left I can go right away or do I wait for incoming traffic. Or if the green arrow is on with the green light (I suppose both lights need to be on at the same time) I can turn left with not much precaution because incoming traffic is at hold? They get the red light?

The amount of dashcam crashes I’ve seen at intersections like these are more than there should be

So what’s the right way of making a left turn when a large vehicle is blocking on coming traffic?

@carultch

Жыл бұрын

It's best to wait for the next light cycle, when the large vehicle has cleared the intersection completely. This is why protected left turns, controlled by arrows are the better design. Even better, is on-demand protected left turns, where the signal only gives out protected left turns when a turning vehicle is detected. Left yield on green circle is still allowed, just not compulsory.

Great Video.

Excelente muchas gracias

In 2:14, what if the area has high foot traffic which means there's too many people crossing the street at different times during the duration of the green light? Can I still complete my left turn after my green light turns red? It seems impossible, especially in crowded cities, to be able to make a left turn wherein both criteria of not having any cars on the opposite direction AND not having pedestrians crossing the street are satisfied.

Hey! Just letting you know - if you enter an intersection while the light is green or yellow planning to make a left turn and while you are yielding to oncoming traffic, and the light you are facing turns red, you are still allowed to complete your turn as you legally entered the intersection. The cars who have been waiting on a red coming the other two directions to the left and right of you will have a green light, but will be forced to wait for you to exit the intersection to proceed.

Who goes first car turning into the left or car turning into the right? Last time I was turning on green light car turn left when I was turning at the same time that dient looked right 2 cars turning I saw your video thank you

I’m a first time driver I got really confused turning left at an intersection and in my mind I thought the light in front of me was for forward moving vehicles there was no arrow indicating to turn left .. I ended up looking at the vehicles that were stoping instead of the light , I went and the police flashed their lights behind me he was understanding but very serious told me I could have caused an accident and it’s 10:15 pm I’m lucky it wasn’t 3 in the afternoon it could have been a terrible accident. He left me off with a warning and told me I don’t think you want to deal with a ticket I thanked the officer and went on driving home from work . A went to google maps and noticed that I was not looking at the correct light and proceeded when it was not yet my turn

Why in so many places left turn lane have green at the same time as oncoming straight traffic

That is why a Roundabout its a great solution. We are changing most crossroads into roundabouts.
