Question: What do you do when you are trapped by circumstances and unable to legally correct a mistake? I followed two cars into a left turn lane on Saturday afternoon. I thought turning left was only prohibited Monday through Friday. Once past the single solid line I could see that it was also prohibited on Saturdays.

I have a question about where to position my vehicle when making left turns at intersections with a traffic light. I have always entered the intersection (stopping somewhat before halfway through), then waited (with my signal on) to proceed safely and make the turn.
This case involves a collision that occurred in a school zone between vehicles parking at the curb. Mr. Ferguson had pulled over parallel to the curb and was preparing to back up and provide more room for others to park. Mr. Yang made a U turn from the other side of the street intending to pull in behind Mr. Ferguson and struck the Ferguson vehicle causing minor damage.
