Where should you begin a left turn from a one-way street onto a one-way street?

1. The lane closest to the center of the street.
2. The far-left lane. ✓
3. You can turn from any lane.

Answer: B. The far-left lane.

Start a left turn from a one-way street onto another one-way street from the far-left lane.

Why this is the answer

The handbook's turn-by-turn list treats this as its own case: when both streets are one-way, the turn begins in the far-left lane. That is the lane at the left edge of your direction of travel. The same passage adds that bicyclists are allowed to use the left turn lane for their own left turns, so expect them there. If your direction has three or more lanes, the handbook also allows you to finish the turn in any open lane.

Why the other answers are wrong

• A. The lane closest to the center of the street. — The lane closest to the middle of the street is the starting point the handbook gives for a left turn from a two-way street onto a one-way street, not for a one-way to one-way turn.
• C. You can turn from any lane. — Nothing in the handbook lets you start a left turn from any lane you like; the starting lane depends on the type of street and the direction of traffic.

Remember it

Both streets one-way means you set up as far left as you can go, since no oncoming traffic shares that side.
