Question: I was recently told by a friend that the proper way to make a left-hand turn at a stop light was to proceed into the intersection when the light turns green, then wait until oncoming ...
A RIRO intersection differs from a 3/4 intersection (right in/right out/left in) and an unrestricted intersection. (Lower left) RIRO ramps on and off a divided highway connecting to the Remetinec Roundabout in Zagreb, Croatia. A right-in/right-out intersection at the entrance to the National Institutes of Health along Maryland Route 355 in ...
Continuous-flow intersection, CFI, crossover displaced left-turn, XDL, or DLT An intersection where vehicles attempting to turn across the opposing direction of traffic (left in right-hand drive jurisdictions; right in left-hand drive jurisdictions) cross before they enter the intersection. No left turn signal in the intersection is then necessary.

Directionality of traffic flow by jurisdiction Countries by direction of road traffic, c. 2020 ⇅ Left-hand traffic ⇵ Right-hand traffic Left-hand traffic (LHT) and right-hand traffic (RHT) are the practices, in bidirectional traffic, of keeping to the left side and to the right side ...
For example, in the intersection shown in the diagram, [clarification needed] left turn lanes are present in the right-left street. Turn lanes allow vehicles, to cross oncoming traffic (i.e., a left turn in right-side driving countries, or a right turn in left-side driving countries), or to exit a road without crossing traffic (i.e., a right ...
Turning movement counters (TMC's) are devices used to manually quantify the movement of vehicles through an intersection. TMC's are square shaped boxes that have buttons for each direction of traffic flow. For example, east bound traffic entering an intersection has a button for those vehicles that turn, left, right or continue straight.
The continuous flow intersection moves the left-turn conflict out of the intersection and synchronizes it with the signal cycle of the intersecting road. In the adjacent diagram, while the left/right traffic flows through the main intersection, the left-turn traffic crosses to the opposite side of the oncoming traffic a few hundred feet away.
As the video from March 8 shows, a UPS truck enters the intersection to turn left from westbound Shepherd onto southbound Friant. ... the outer lanes become a left-turn-only and a right-turn-only.
