You’re turning right at a crossroads. An oncoming driver is also turning right. What’s the advantage of turning behind the oncoming vehicle?

When turning right at a crossroads where oncoming traffic is also turning right, it’s generally safer to turn behind the approaching vehicle. This allows you a clear view of approaching traffic and is called ‘turning offside to offside’. However, some junctions, usually controlled by traffic-light filters – are marked for vehicles to turn nearside to nearside.
