Questions / G2 road test

Answer first · reviewed August 2026

Which lane should I enter after a left turn?

Short answer

Turn into the corresponding legal lane unless signs, markings or the road layout direct otherwise. Then change lanes separately when safe and appropriate.

Make it practical

What to do

Practise completing the turn under control before beginning a mirror-signal-blind-spot lane change.

Easy to miss

The common trap

Swinging across multiple lanes in one smooth-looking but unlawful arc.

Turn knowledge into a habit

How to practise it

Practise the skill on several unfamiliar roads until you can perform it safely without a prompt. The route can change; the habit must travel with you.

When a rule, road sign or examiner instruction conflicts with an internet tip, use the official rule and the safe decision. The internet has many talents; wearing a reflective examiner vest is not one of them.
