Final answer:

You should only make a right turn from a lane with a bike lane after ensuring safety by yielding to cyclists, signaling, and following local laws on merging into bike lanes before turning.

Step-by-step explanation:

When driving a vehicle on a roadway that has a bike lane, you should only make a right turn after you have ensured it is safe to do so, meaning you must check for bicyclists and yield to any approaching from behind, signal your turn in advance, and then enter the bike lane if permissible by local laws, usually within a car length of the intersection. This helps prevent what is known as the 'right hook' collision, where a vehicle turns across the path of a bicyclist moving straight.
