If on a two-way road a vehicle wants to turn left, should it facilitate other vehicles overtaking it?
Changing direction
Explanation
To turn **left** on a **two-way road**, it is important to facilitate overtaking by other vehicles. Here we explain why:
- **Vehicle positioning**: You should position yourself as close as possible to the white line separating the lanes. This allows vehicles coming from behind to overtake you on the right if necessary, without invading the opposite lane.
- **Facilitating overtaking**: By staying to the left of the lane, you allow other vehicles to overtake you safely. It is important not to obstruct vehicles traveling in the opposite direction, thus ensuring a safe maneuver for everyone.
- **Exceptions to overtaking on the right**: Although overtaking is generally done on the left, in this specific case, vehicles can overtake you on the right if you are clearly indicating a left turn.
By following these guidelines, you help maintain traffic flow and ensure safety on the road.
