To complete a left turn safely, what should a driver monitor?

  1. Oncoming streetcars

  2. Pedestrians

  3. Both A and B

  4. Neither A nor B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

To complete a left turn safely, it is essential for a driver to monitor both oncoming streetcars and pedestrians. Oncoming streetcars are a critical factor because they may have the right of way in many traffic situations, and a driver must ensure that no streetcar is approaching before initiating the turn. Additionally, pedestrians can be entering the crosswalk or may be crossing the street unexpectedly, so being aware of their presence and actions is vital for ensuring their safety and preventing accidents. By including both considerations, drivers can make informed decisions and carry out left turns without jeopardizing their own safety or the safety of others on the road. Monitoring these two aspects reflects a comprehensive approach to safe driving practices during turns.
