turning right from middle lane

[BusaBob]

Thanks, Splash. That cleared it up perfectly!

You can't prove a negative... but nowhere in the HTA does it say you can't do it.

Also, it was posted already... See post #20


Right turn at intersection
(2) Where a driver or operator of a vehicle intends to turn to the right into an intersecting highway, he or she shall, where the highway on which he or she is driving has marked lanes for traffic, approach the intersection within the right-hand lane or, where it has no such marked lanes, by keeping immediately to the left of the right curb or edge of the roadway and he or she shall make the right turn by entering the right-hand lane of the intersecting highway where the lane is marked or, where no such lane is marked, by keeping immediately to the left of the right curb or edge of the roadway being entered. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 141 (2).
Right turn, where multiple lanes
(3) Despite subsection (2), where more than one lane of a highway has been designated as a right-turn lane, the driver or operator of a vehicle intending to turn to the right into an intersecting highway shall approach the intersection in one of the lanes and leave the intersection in the lane of the intersecting highway that corresponds to the lane from which the turn was commenced. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 141 (3).


Red light
(18 )Every driver approaching a traffic control signal showing a circular red indication and facing the indication shall stop his or her vehicle and shall not proceed until a green indication is shown. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 144 (18 ).


Exception – turn
(19) Despite subsection (18 ) and subject to subsection (14), a driver, after stopping his or her vehicle and yielding the right of way to traffic lawfully approaching so closely that to proceed would constitute an immediate hazard, may,
(a) turn to the right; or
(b) turn to the left from a one-way street into a one-way street,
without a green indication being shown. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 144 (19).

Good question for the traffic department. - maybe they were trying to save $$$ on paint?
Is there an email address for the township/city whoever might own this responsibility?

I sent an e-mail to "operations" but I couldn't find anything for roads or traffic services for the township of Whitby. Hopefully it'll get to the right department. I'll let you know the reply.

Can someone tell me which way the middle lane can/should go here at Manning and Garrard
Eastbound on Manning Rd - there are 2 lanes and a new 3rd lane grows from the left, where does the middle lane go!? - can't go north - only 1 lane north, can't go south, only 1 lane south, can't go straight!, T-intersection.

Overflow for trucks perhaps? Should probably have been hatched out. Sometimes the lines aren't planned out before they're drawn.

Right now..... no where..

They are building a by pass soon and the middle lane will go straight.

On the left of the "fake" road there's a house in Street view. If you go there right now the house is gone.
