What is the procedure when you must turn left at a stoplight?

  1. Signal and stay in the left lane

  2. Signal, stay in the right lane, and proceed

  3. Signal and wait for traffic to clear

  4. Signal, move over to the left lane, and proceed

The correct answer is: Signal, move over to the left lane, and proceed

When making a left turn at a stoplight, option D is the correct procedure to follow. This is because turning left requires you to move to the lane furthest left, so you can safely cross the intersection. Option A is incorrect because just signaling and staying in the left lane may not allow for a safe and uninterrupted turn, as other vehicles may still be traveling in that lane. Option B is incorrect because staying in the right lane will not allow for a left turn at all. Option C is incorrect because simply waiting for traffic to clear does not ensure a safe and legal left turn. It is important to signal and move to the left lane before making the turn to clearly communicate your intentions to other drivers and ensure a safe turn.
