    How would you get anywhere if you couldn’t turn left?

    Jasdip, I know you just give the answer you have. The question is rhetorical.

    I just can’t help thinking that I’d end up in Saskatchewan if I couldn’t turn left. And no way to get home!

    Rox, do you remember that it was widely known that UPS drivers didn't turn left? That was an urban legend. But I guess you drive around the block to the nearest light, instead of waiting at intersections, to turn left. I know every time I see someone trying to pull out of a business with 2 lanes of full traffic coming, I think to myself I'd just turn right, and turn at the light right up the street.

    Jasdip, my problem is that there are no blocks where I live. Once I leave my driveway and drive a bit, I come to a T intersection highway. (Well not a true T, there is a straight ahead road but it ends in a lake) If I turn right, I’m heading straight east. Opposite to the direction I want to go. By the time I can turn right again I’m several kilometres down the road and then by the time that I can turn right again, several kilometres again and so on. 🤷‍♀️

    Some left hand turns should be prohibited (and are) though, I suppose.

    Turn right, Rox, drive a short distance, turn right into a street or lane and turn around, then return to the road you'd just left, and turn (left) to go in the direction you originally desired.

    In a city, where there are many streets so short blocks, many say that making three immediate rights achieves the end you desired.

    One wrong does not make a right, but 3 lefts do! So 3 rights will make a left.

    “and turn (left) to go in the direction you originally desired.”

    But I can’t turn left if they are prohibited!

    “So 3 rights will make a left.”

    Nope! You’re just going in circles. And burning a lot of gas.


    Lol. Thanks OJ and Annie. I just hope left hand turns are never banned. I’ll end up being like the guy on the MTA. Or living in Saskatchewan.
