Question

When making a right turn into a bike lane, you must enter the bike lane to start your turn no sooner than ______ before the point at which you are actually turning?

Answer 1

When making a right turn into a bike lane, you must enter the bike lane no sooner than 200 feet before the turn.

Step-by-step explanation:

When making a right turn into a bike lane, you must enter the bike lane to start your turn no sooner than 200 feet before the point at which you are turning.

Entering the bike lane too soon can pose a safety risk to cyclists, as they may not be expecting a vehicle to enter their lane. Waiting until you are closer to the point of turning ensures that you have a clear path and that cyclists have sufficient time to react to your presence.

Remember to always signal your intention to turn, and check for any approaching cyclists before entering the bike lane.

Answer 2

If a bicyclist is making a right turn into a bike lane he/she should signal right to change the lanes, ensuring there are no co-bicyclists within the lane; then that’s the time to move into the lane. He/she then blocking the bike lane, so that cyclists don’t pull up on the right side of the lane. He/she then can go signal again to turn right and making his/her turn.
