dual right turn lanes, onto a 3 lane road

All the way to the bank via the far right lane.....

 

We had like a 3500 post thread on it just over a year and a half ago. Although the 2 into 3 is an interesting twist.

Pretty sure we broke the internet with that one....

 

Probably. Won't be me, though.

 

Not sure if it would be applicable elsewhere, but here (BC) we're expected to stay in the far right lane until just about ready to turn, then come over to the edge of the median and block 4 wheelers with the trailer. After that point it's straight and wait till turn, and turn into the far right lane (as long as it's not HOV) of the 3 lane.

All this assumes you're at a stop sign or un-signalled intersection and can't make an outside to outside turn safely. If at a stop light that may or may not change then we're expected to be in the left lane well before the intersection, and proceed to the middle lane of the 3 way, eventually getting back into the far right lane when safe if it's not HOV.

A lot of the civic planning here is starting to look like Europe. Tight lanes, even tighter corners in some places. Most cops are pretty forgiving (they have the same power as DOT here) but if they see you taking someone's right of way you're screwed.

 

I see what you did there...

...you are trying to peel off some of @Thull 's claim to glory!

 

On multiple turn lanes I generally stick to the outside of the rainbow. Easier to see a car creeping up on your inside than on the outside.
