27 Starting a left turn from a road (except a multi-lane road)

(1) A driver turning left at an intersection from a road (except a multi-lane road) must approach and enter the intersection from as near as practicable to the far left side of the road.

Intersection and multi-lane road are defined in the dictionary.

Rule 27(1A) amended by S.R. No. 135/2021 rule 8.

(1A) Subrule (1) also applies to a rider of a bicycle or an electric scooter who approaches and enters an intersection from a bicycle storage area.

(1B) Despite subrule (1), if there is space in a bicycle storage area for 2 riders of bicycles to be next to each other, the rider on the right may approach and enter the intersection as near as practicable to the right side of the other rider, but only if that other rider approaches and enters the intersection in accordance with this rule.

Road related area includes any shoulder of a road—see rule 13.
