Before turning right, you should:

• A. Slow down or stop, if necessary, and then make the turn
• B. Turn immediately without signaling
• C. Accelerate to join traffic
• D. Signal and then turn right away

Answer: (A)

When turning right, you should slow down and brake as needed, and only proceed once it’s safe. Reducing your speed gives you time to check for pedestrians in the crosswalk, cyclists near the curb, and other vehicles that may have the right of way. If someone is crossing or traffic is heavy, stop and wait until it’s clear. Then steer into the correct lane and complete the turn. Signaling is important to warn others, but the key action is lowering your speed to a safe level and turning only when it’s safe. Turning immediately without signaling is unsafe, accelerating to join traffic is risky near intersections, and signaling then turning right away can still be unsafe if you haven’t slowed enough to check the area.
