Understanding California's traffic laws related to left turns is crucial for establishing liability in left turn accident cases. Here are some key points to consider:

1. The California Vehicle Code specifically addresses left turns, detailing the responsibilities and obligations of drivers when executing left turns at intersections, including as follows:
   1. California Vehicle Code Section 21801: Left Turn at Intersection Section 21801(a) states: "The driver of a vehicle intending to turn to the left or to complete a U-turn upon a highway, or to turn left into public or private property, or an alley, shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching from the opposite direction which are close enough to constitute a hazard at any time during the turning movement, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to the approaching vehicles until the left turn or U-turn can be made with reasonable safety."
   2. California Vehicle Code Section 22100: Unsafe Turn and Signals Section 22100 states: "No person shall turn a vehicle from a direct course or move right or left upon a roadway until such movement can be made with reasonable safety and then only after the giving of an appropriate signal in the manner provided in this chapter in the event any other vehicle may be affected by the movement."
   3. California Vehicle Code Section 22102: Left or Right Turns at Intersections Section 22102(a) states: "The driver of any vehicle intending to turn at an intersection shall do so as follows: (1) Right Turns: Both the approach for a right-hand turn and a right-hand turn shall be made as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway..."and (2) Left Turns: The driver of a vehicle intending to turn left shall approach the turn in the extreme left-hand lane lawfully available to traffic moving in the direction of travel of the vehicle. Whenever practicable, the left turn shall be made to the left of the center of the intersection and so as to leave the intersection or other location in the extreme left-hand lane lawfully available to traffic moving in the same direction as the vehicle on the roadway being entered.”
   4. California Vehicle Code Section 22107: Turning Movements and Required Signals Section 22107(a) states: "No person shall turn a vehicle from a direct course or move right or left upon a roadway until such movement can be made with reasonable safety and then only after the giving of an appropriate signal in the manner provided in this chapter in the event any other vehicle may be affected by the movement."
