               Turn Lanes
               These lanes, bordered by solid yellow and/or broken yellow lines, is in the
               center of many streets and highways to make left turns. A motorist desiring
               to turn left should proceed to the turn lane just prior to making a left turn.
               Georgia law prohibits the use of this lane for any purpose other than making
               a left turn. You may enter this lane no more than 300 feet from the location
               of the left turn.

                  When a turning lane is provided for vehicles traveling in both directions,
