When a motorist is turning left and there is a bicyclist entering the intersection from the opposite direction, the motorist should...

• A. Continue turning.
• B. Yield the right-of-way to the bicyclist.
• C. Honk to warn.
• D. Speed up to clear.

Answer: (B)

When turning left, you must yield to any cyclist approaching from the opposite direction who is entering or already in the intersection. The cyclist has the right of way in that moment, so you should wait until they pass or there’s a safe gap before completing your turn. This keeps cyclists safe and follows the rule that you must not cut in front of someone in the intersection. Honking isn’t a legal signal to proceed, and speeding up to beat the cyclist is dangerous and could cause a collision.
