Michigan Moped Training Practice Test

When you turn right at an intersection, the main risk you need to watch for is vehicles coming from the opposite direction that are turning left across your path into the same lane you’re entering. These left-turning drivers can swing into your turn space, so you must be prepared to slow or stop and yield until their turn is complete and the lane is clear. As you approach, signal and reduce speed, scan for any oncoming cars about to turn left, and make sure the path you intend to take is free before proceeding. Don’t forget to check for pedestrians in crosswalks at the corner, since they can also be in your turning path. Weather or animals can create hazards in general, but the scenario specifically emphasizes watching for left-turning vehicles crossing into your turn space.
