Right Turn Precautions: Scanning Crosswalks Before Highway Merge Lanes

Learn the importance of scanning crosswalks when entering highway merge lanes.
In this brief tutorial, we emphasize the crucial elements of making a right turn safely, especially when leading up to a highway merge lane:
Absence of a Yield Sign: Just because there's no yield sign doesn't mean you shouldn't be cautious. Always be alert and anticipate potential hazards.
Scanning Crosswalks: Before making your turn, it's imperative to scan crosswalks for pedestrians and, in this instance, cyclists. Ensure that the path is clear even if the vehicle ahead of you has proceeded.
Bike Paths and Beyond: Cyclists can sometimes be harder to spot, especially near highways. Always scan bike paths before proceeding with your turn.
As drivers, our responsibility is to ensure safety at every turn, quite literally! Watch this video for a clear understanding of these practices and ensure you always navigate roads with utmost care. Stay tuned for more such insights in our upcoming videos!
