On
smaller roads, only the rightmost lane is allowed right turn (by default).
You
cannot go straight into a left-hand lane, and if you need to, first complete
the right turn in the rightmost lane, and then change lanes to the left in a
regular way.
This
is a requirement of ARR (r.22 (3)).
In
Tasmania, on an unmarked road you are allowed to choose any lane when turning
right “if it is safe” (Ref.#10
p.34). The point is that in real life it is unsafe to take any lane except
the rightmost because of other drivers.
The
only exception is when two conditions are met:
first, the only one lane is allowed
to turn right; and
second, you are turning right from
a terminating into a continuing road of a T-intersection.
In
this case geometry of the T-intersection makes it safe for you to choose any
lane you want, and you may enter the new road in the lane appropriate for the
upcoming turn. For example, if after this turn you plan to turn left, go
straight into the leftmost lane.
