You want to turn left. What driving line should you maintain?

When turning left, it is important to maintain the right driving line. This is because, in Germany, drivers should generally position their vehicles in a way that keeps them safe and compliant with traffic regulations. The right driving line helps facilitate the turn while also allowing other vehicles and cyclists to move safely.

In certain situations, using the left driving line may also be permitted, especially in wider roads or where specifically indicated by road signs. However, it is critical to assess the surrounding traffic and conditions. Therefore, the correct approach is to prioritize the right driving line for safety and adherence to the rules, while being aware that both lines can be valid in specific contexts.

Understanding and following these rules helps minimize potential accidents and ensures smooth traffic flow.
