Challenge: Turning left: the wide arc, and three exceptions to 'left-past-left'
'Left-past-left' sounds like a fixed rule everyone knows — and that is exactly why the CBR examiner tests the exceptions. The book names three: the oncoming driver has already clearly committed to a position, road markings indicate otherwise, or there is a wide central reservation. Know only the main rule, and you fall for every exception.
