What must a vehicle turning left do?

• A. Yield
• B. Proceed first
• C. Speed up
• D. Turn immediately

Answer: (A)

Turning left relies on giving the right-of-way to vehicles coming from the opposite direction and to pedestrians in or entering the turn path. You should slow, scan for a safe gap, and only proceed when you can complete the turn without intersecting with oncoming traffic or pedestrians. If there’s a protected left-turn signal, you may go when it’s green; otherwise you wait for a safe moment. This is why yielding is the required action. Proceeding first would violate who has priority, speeding up doesn’t resolve the need to wait for a safe, clear gap, and turning immediately ignores the necessary safety check and right-of-way.
