On a roadway with two-way traffic and three lanes separated by discontinuous longitudinal markings, which lane should be used to change direction to the left?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

On roadways with two-way traffic and three lanes separated by discontinuous longitudinal markings, lane usage is very specific. The rightmost lane is for normal driving. The center lane is reserved exclusively for overtaking and for changing direction to the left (left turns), provided it is free of oncoming traffic. The leftmost lane is reserved for oncoming traffic. Therefore, the turn must not be made from the right lane nor the left lane.
