Two vehicles are in an intersection; one is going straight on a green light, the other is waiting to turn left. After the light changes, what should the turning driver do?

• A.Turn immediately when the light turns yellow, regardless of traffic
• B.Wait until oncoming traffic has stopped or cleared, yield to any pedestrians, then complete the turn safely
• C.Assume oncoming drivers will stop for you
• D.Abandon the turn and back out of the intersection

Why

A left-turning driver remains responsible for yielding until the turn can be made safely. When the light changes, oncoming traffic must stop, but the turning driver must still check for red-light runners and pedestrians.
