[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I live in MoCo but have been confused as a driver what to do at turns when there are bike lanes- thinking of University Blvd. in particular. I never know if I should move into the bike lanes to make a right hand turn or turn from the driving lane. I've done both but not sure which is right- one time I turned from the car lane with my signal on but the car behind me moved over to the bike lanes to turn and we almost had an accident.[/quote] 1. Check to make sure the bike lane is clear. 2. Put on your turn signal. 3. Merge to the right in the area marked for merging. 4. Turn right. If you turn from the right across the bike lane, without merging to the right (when the bike lane is clear), you risk right-hooking a bicyclist - or, as happened to you, getting into a crash with a driver who did merge to the right.
