See the confusion? To many expats it is a ridiculous convention.

I told you they have different rules because also in our country to make a left turn we stay on the leftmost lane. This was my early mistake during my driving class and I had near misses.

That is why my instructor told me precisely - when making a left turn on a TWO-LANE LEFT TURNING SECTION, stay on the outer lane.

By the way for an SUV it is too tight to make a U-turn on the inner lane because of the center island. That is why I see so many L/C do it from the outer lane to make a wide turn. I think this is the reason for such convention here.
