B is correct. Anyone who does A also comes to a complete stop at flashing yellow lights

B is correct.

Anyone that does A needs to be sacrificed to the Gods.


I like how you filled out your title block, but you forgot the subject.

i make this turn every morning on the way to work. And at least 2 times a week someone coming from the other direction either does the B move ahead of me or tries to do it when i'm already in the crossover..

B is best, but I’ve legit never seen anybody actually do that. Ever.

B is correct but how many times do y’all have to hit your brakes because as your getting into position Mr A cuts in front of you;(

Try taking a left onto highland from state street coming from Louie’s.... between that and the auxiliary drive through line for canes ( ie state street)... I just avoid the intersection...

Why would anyone think turning to where you are on the wrong side of the road and both drivers are blocked from viewing oncoming traffic be the correct way?


poor education.

i guess they think it saves a second or 2 because they travel a shorter distance?

thats right, but for decent reasoning. because when 2 people follow the proper procedure and fill the crossover some dumbfrick comes and stops in front of one of the turning cars and waits for the other to turn, thus blocking in one of the cars.

Perhaps “ever” was a little hyperbolic. I am unaware of ever seeing anyone do B. I don’t make a lot of turns like this (def not daily), so I probably miss the few who do it properly because I don’t notice. It’s certainly not the norm, though.
