Question:
I would like to know about right turns at the intersection of Dunbar Street and 16th Avenue in Vancouver. When turning right from Dunbar northbound to 16th eastbound, is it legal to turn right on a red light from the middle lane?

On my way home from dropping my daughter at school I turn left onto my street at an intersection and then need to turn left immediately again as my house is the 1st driveway. I do so over a single yellow line and am often getting honks etc. I don't think they're aware I'm turning into a driveway although I do signal... Am I wrong or are they?
Who is liable for the crash when one driver swings wide to turn right into his driveway and an overtaking driver passes on the right at the same time? That is the question decided by Justice Brown in the case of Tang v Rogers.
This case involves a serious collision at the intersection of the Trans Canada Highway and Bench Road in North Cowichan. A southbound car turning left at the intersection and a northbound motorcycle proceeding at high speed facing a yellow traffic light meet in the middle.
