Your score is

These lanes, marked by parallel yellow lines and arrows, are specifically for vehicles making left turns from either direction, not for passing or regular travel. Test questions assess when it is legal to enter a center turning lane, how long you may drive in it, and the need to signal your intention before moving into or out of the lane. Proper use of center turning lanes helps prevent traffic congestion and collisions, promoting safer driving on Saskatchewan roads.
