YouOncoming car

You want to turn left at an intersection. An oncoming car is close and going straight. Who goes first?

The rule

Turning left at an intersection, or into a driveway or alley, you yield to all traffic coming toward you, bicycles included, and to pedestrians crossing either road.

Turning left, you must yield to oncoming traffic, including bicycles, and to pedestrians crossing. Wait for a safe gap.

From the Georgia Drivers' Manual, page 17. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DDS have the final word.
