Left Turns at Complex Intersections | Zula Driving School

[@TheLeonidbal]

The best and most comprehensive lecture about the left turn, which I have ever heard. Thank you. Best wishes to you and your students!

[@princeprempeh1467]

Yes the best

[@metsrus]

what happens if the opposite side is making a left turn at the same time as you

[@rjwl156]

Once someone honked to ask me to go at left turn, I couldn't see well so i didn't go. And a sec after he honked there was a car speeding right pass me. Would've got bad crush if felt being rushed.

[@tenzinbhai9709]

good decision, you literally safe yours and that speeding life as well.

[@pattheegreat]

Thank you. I failed my test as I froze due to obstruction of view of oncoming traffic. I now know exactly what I am supposed to do!

[@golamashraf1464]

Shayan, this video and many of your other videos have really been super helpful in clarifying a lot of finer points in driving safely in Canada. Thank you for building this great learning resource for the public. I cleared my Class 5 road test today (transitioning from a foreign license), after pouring over many of your videos. Your suggestion about prepping the mind during a test to deal with anxiety was something that really helped calm me and focus on the job at hand. As you said, it doesn't matter if one passes on the first try or the fifth, in the grand scheme of things, it's safe driving skills for the long term, and treating the assessment as objective feedback to improve upon, which count. Thank you very much!

[@keithmcmanus2406]

You have brilliantly illustrated all the possible things that can go wrong by using your "waiting position". The correct waiting position is behind the stop line, just like when you're waiting for the light to change. Also, never block the crosswalk.

[@stopnprintcafe6745]

Thanks for the explanation on left turn. I used to be afraid to make left turn at a four way intersection where the protected left turn is off and the regular green is on and no oncoming traffic. Now I understand. Thanks a lot

[@AdnanAli-yf6yw]

You and Rick from Smart drive are one of the best instructors on KZbin, thank you so much for your great detailed videos and helping people pass the test and become better drivers.

[@chaitanyasamrat7743]

This is the best video on KZbin for learning left turns. No other video gives this level of detail or in such a simple way. Great job.

[@Ponch316]

I just passed my test, I couldn't take any warm-up lessons but your videos took me 90% there!! Thank you so much and you will have my full recommendation!!

[@bunzino21]

Best explanation thus far about left turns, kudos to you bro!

[@jiinchun6605]

This lesson is amazing. Especially for someone who is a first time driver, who is nervous. Very detailed explanation which I really needed. Very clear instruction.👍

[@Naomi-kx1ou]

So helpful. I made several mistakes on making a left turn, now I know what to do and do it confidently.

[@cecyredding6814]

your so calm at explaining everything and very especific and covering all bases thank you! this is very important information

[@Pranav2579]

Really one of the best videos on left turn amongst a tonne of random videos. Glad i was able to watch it. You explained the concept extremly clearly and kudos for the effort.

[@arghavanhatamkhan5435]

It was so useful and comprehensive! There is nothing to add up to these explanations. Thanks for sharing it 🙏

[@NamesILikeAreTaken]

Thank you so much for this information, so helpful!! I appreciate how you really go through each step with clear explanations and in a calm way!

[@wanchoorobin1]

Awesome, you nailed it, such a better way of explaining all points i have ever seen

[@strongmanr]

And by the way you said something very important at the end of your video, (PLAN BEFORE YOU ENTER THE INTERSECTION), I agree 100%, you have no right to change your mind in a middle of the intersection

[@josephmurree4065]

This this The Best video on Left turns at intersections... and the options I have and what actions I should do in the different scenarios... Thank you so much.

[@phuocnhanang4774]

thanks so much, I used to be really confused when making a left turn at intersections before, after I watched your video, I pass my class 5 road test on the first try. Thanks again

[@susannayee644]

Awesome video! You are so clear in your instructions and I like that you explain the logic behind each steps. The diagrams are a helpful visual as well.

[@sameerahmd6261]

Man!! You have made it so easy to understand the Left Turn!! God bless you. Excellent video. Huge thumbs up for you!!

[@ahmedkibria8866]

Outstanding!!! No more doubt on left turn. Great Shayn

[@KHR327fan]

Great explanation. I'm having difficult knowing what a safe gap looks like visually during high traffic hours when I'm waiting to make my left turn. I feel like I just can't tell how fast the cars are going and what the distance of a safe gap looks like. This makes me quite nervous as I find myself in the waiting position often when the light turns yellow.

[@yungboibutter2230]

Even I took a lesson from this cuz I was so used to just creeping towards the middle soon as I had the green light but that waiting position and yellow light creep is very helpful 👍. Thank you. Stay safe everyone.

[@ferozkhan278]

Bro, this is amazing. Helps a ton!

[@boldbeautiful4725]

Thanks for the presentation,I will have to watch it a few more times to get the full understanding.

[@thru_and_thru]

Amazing explanation, just what I was looking for. Thank you so much!!

[@reyrevo121]

Thanks a million! I really appreciate your effort in teaching.

[@strongmanr]

Thank you so much bro, very helpful, I was in a dangerous position while being in a waiting position and the light turned to red and when I had to turn, somebody from the left side position stop suddenly to avoid crashing on my car. Thanks God! Safe, since that I am very cautious when making a left turn

[@coolmatrix7]

i have watched some other videos of this instructor. No doubt he is the one of the best.

[@SamarSingh-pg2ui]

Best video i have ever seen, thanks

[@manasnayak3156]

The best content on youtube.

[@harshitharaviraj7581]

Great instructions, thank you so much! Helped me a lot in my test :)

[@angelicharmony]

Thank you so much. Very helpful. I didn't know about the waiting position being further back

[@md.ahasanulhuq4237]

It's really helpful. I faced the last scenario; a big car blocked my view of the incoming car.

[@sunilzood9641]

Very Impressive.. It covers all possibilities I had in my mind and thinking to get answers.!

[@josefernandesvancouver5595]

Fantastic video. Simple and efficient.

[@nehagupta-ux1bx]

Very helpful! My instructor didn’t explain in such detail

[@tjsingh417]

Honestly this is very helpful thumbs up

[@user-ok8ef6gq6x]

omg thank you!!! AMAZING explanation

[@monicaanchan]

Amazing video. Thank you!

[@anitanorambuena]

Finnally i understood all the cases. Thanks!

[@cleanthegreen]

So basically once you’ve committed to turrning left you should have your back tires in the waiting position ASKING the oncomers to yield. When lights start to turn to yellow, you should already be inside the intersection, and at that point you’re “NOT ASKING” anymore for them to yield. Lol.

[@Anon-sc2ce]

very useful great explanation. about to do my road test later and you cleared up my confusion thank you.

[@iamashique]

This is so helpful! During my road test, I skipped your '3rd scenario' and went from 2nd to 4th, and the examiner failed me as it was, according to him, a ticket-able offense.

[@jonathanramos7285]

The best video ever.

[@adityataneja86]

Wow. This guy is very detailed!!

[@learningConstructionfficiently]

Awesome You are the best

[@bellecons]

Thanks for this video. The 3rd one happened to me today.

[@hosnasafar2526]

Thanks 🙏🏻 very useful and understandable

[@alaahesham250]

[@familee7982]

thank you very details

[@joechow7115]

This is very helpful. Thank you!

[@PicoPianist]

Explained beautifully!

[@rosiecooper2721]

Wonderful... I learned a lot. But what if you're caught out in the middle section and it does turn red. Would it count against us if we just went straight to avoid on coming traffic?

[@Seif.Adlan.]

Wow this is super helpful. Thank you

[@elizabetholiveros5163]

Thank you so much and you explained it clearly

[@joshinthesauce4636]

For scenario 2, wouldn’t keeping your back wheels in the crosswalk block the way of pedestrians? What if you’re waiting for oncoming traffic and pedestrians try to cross behind you?

[@iamsm3828]

Pedestrians don't cross cutting the ongoing traffic. So, for scenario 2, that crosswalk is prohibited for pedestrians. Feel free to block it...

[@kittybegum8486]

@@iamsm3828 ,thank you for clarifying.i had the same question in my mind.But you explained well.No confusion now!

[@allanomware3630]

Well explained and clear.

[@hiteshved8367]

Excellent explanation...

[@arnabmallik7978]

Hi Shayan thanks for the wonderful video. One scenario that I'm not sure who has the right of way ... If a vehicle has a dedicated left turn and at the same time another oncoming vehicle is trying to turn right, then who has the right of way if the streets have only 1 lane?

[@ZulaDrivingSchool]

Hi Arnab, If you are facing a green arrow then you have the right of way. If you are facing a regular green light you must yield to the oncoming traffic if making the turn would mean that they would need to slow down for you or cover their brake.

[@jasbirkaur6176]

Very informative video Thanks a lot

[@SivaKumar-yk5su]

Nice video. Learned a lot. Thanks dear.

[@ClumpypooCP]

So helpful thanks a lot !!

[@umutozk]

Kolaylıklar ve başarılar dilerim. Şahsen tanımasam da, aksandan tanıdım :) Çok güzel video. CA, USA için bakınıyordum :) takıldım kaldım.

[@duongminh1972able]

When we are at the waiting position, the traffic is busy, then we have to turn left when light turn red.

[@jessicaarroyo5030]

Thank you for this!

[@maninderdhiman783]

Thanks for sharing important tips

[@ram31299]

Nice vidéo...what if in the case you showed when turning left some pedestrian on your left jumps suddenly and you have then to stop in the intersection but as it's red light so the traffic on your right has green light, what if this right traffic speeds up while you stop suddenly in the intersection when some pedestrian jumps on your left? What is the best practice in this case? I guess as there should not be more than one vehicle in one intersection, in addition to the traffic behind you, even the traffic on your right Should not also speed up, ie it should stay at the stop line, before you clear the intersection right?

[@karenharris3183]

I was taught to have wheels turned . Now you say no. No wounder I failed my drives test. Everyone if another mind of ideas. Beginners are not aware..Ok Now I will watch your film.

[@ghareebadam340]

Thanks that was best explanation.

[@annasorokina5717]

Wow super helpful!

[@deonnarine4363]

Great video, thanks

[@blast2014]

Nice vid thanks, I’m taking my test on May 9

[@ZulaDrivingSchool]

Thank you, glad you liked it. I wish you well on your Road Test.

[@jerinjohnson6257]

Hi Shayan, Thanks for your exquisite explanations, it was really helpful. Suppose I am in the 2nd scenario, and a car on the opposite road is turning it's left, which is certain in the majority of cases, who's having right-of-way? Is it me, other car or both can turn left at the same time?

[@ZulaDrivingSchool]

Hi Jerin, you are welcome. As for your question, usually, the opposing cars waiting to turn left do not interfere with our ability to make our turn when it's safe to do so. The key word here is safe. In other words, if the car waiting turn left across from you is blocking your view of oncoming traffic, then you need to wait until they turn so that you can see it's clear, or when the light turns yellow, we start rolling forward, looking for a safe gap to complete our turn. I hope this helps.

[@dayman9432]

great video thank you so much! :)
