When turning left at this intersection, where should the centre of the intersection be in relation to your vehicle?

Why this is the correct answer

When turning left at an intersection in Spain, you must leave the centre of the intersection to your LEFT. Picture this from the aerial view in the image: if you are approaching from the bottom road going upward and want to turn left, you do NOT cut diagonally across the centre. Instead, you drive forward into the intersection, pass slightly beyond the centre point, and then turn left. The centre of the intersection remains on your left-hand side throughout the manoeuvre -- like tracing an "L" shape. Why this rule? If another vehicle is coming from the opposite direction and also wants to turn left, both vehicles pass behind each other (back to back) instead of crossing in front of each other (face to face). This avoids dangerous head-on conflicts in the middle of the intersection. Think of it this way: when turning left, you and the oncoming left-turner each keep the centre to your own left, so you naturally go around each other safely. The intersection in the image has a P-2 warning sign (red-bordered triangle with an X), indicating an intersection where the right-of-way rule applies. The correct answer is A: the centre of the intersection should remain to your left.
