A Must Turn regulatory sign showing arrows in both directions is posted at an intersection. What does it require of you?
-
A.
You must turn only in the direction of the single arrow shown.
-
B.
You must yield to turning traffic before continuing straight.
-
C.
You must turn right or left; you cannot continue straight ahead. Correct
-
D.
You may turn or continue straight at your discretion.
The answer is "You must turn right or left; you cannot continue straight ahead."
The dual-arrow Must Turn sign bans going straight and lets the driver choose either direction. The single-direction reading carried into choice A comes from Left Lane Must Turn, whose shared name pulls readers toward the wrong rule.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. You must turn only in the direction of the single arrow shown.
Must Turn shows two arrows and offers the driver a choice; Left Lane Must Turn is the single-arrow sign. Carries the one-direction reading over from Left Lane Must Turn, the sign printed a page earlier whose shared name draws readers to the wrong rule.
B. You must yield to turning traffic before continuing straight.
Must Turn is an outright ban on continuing straight, not a yield to turning traffic. Reads Must Turn as adding a yield to turning traffic rather than banning straight travel.
D. You may turn or continue straight at your discretion.
The sign removes the option to continue straight; the choice is only which direction to turn. Confuses Must Turn with the Turn Lanes dual-arrow sign that does allow the straight option.
