Correct answer

  • Agirar desde su carril sin invadir el sentido contrario.turn from its lane without crossing into the oncoming side.
Explanation

To turn left we must position ourselves as follows: - If the road is one-way, keep close to the left edge. - On a two-way carriageway, keep close to the longitudinal marking separating the two directions of traffic or, if there is none, to the centre of the carriageway, without entering the area for the opposite direction. - If the carriageway is two-way and has 3 lanes, position ourselves in the centre lane and turn from there. All this applies as long as there is no lane specially set aside for turning left.
