While turning left or right, can I take either A or B, or I need to stick to A1 and B2?

  1. you can take either one as your lane is the only one turning in that direction

  2. Both, because there is only one lane to turn left/right.

  3. Stay in A1 and B2 first and then, when it is Safe to do so, change lanes. Always pick the lane closest to the direction of the turn

  4. Since only one lane changes in each direction you can take both.

  5. Technically the former: A1 and B2. If you’re taking driver’s ed classes, you should stick to this…

    Once you have your license: meh, nobody cares.

  6. When you come from a street with one single turning lane you have the right to choose the lane of the street.
    So you can choose a1, b1, a2 and b2.

    But be warned , some people will try to make a turn on you from the opposite site of the crossing then where are to lanes , so you use a1 and he will use b1.
    This is not correct and is the an accident this will used as a core guilty reason.

  7. If there is only 1 lane for turning into a multiple lane street, you can choose the lane.

    If there are a minimum of 2 lanes for turning into the same direction, you have to stick to your lane.

  8. Start off in A1 or B2. Upon checking over your shoulder (schulterblick) you can then proceed to safely use the other lanes. That’s driving school
    In theory. In real life nobody is gonna complain if you use the other lanes if you’re the only one Turing

  9. There are two rules you need to keep in mind here:

    1. If you come from only one turning lane, you have free choice of arrival lanes, unless road markings and signage orders something else.

    2. When you turn left you generally have to give way to oncoming traffic including those that turn right.

    Also, you may ask further traffic rule questions in r/StVO 😉
