Q: I have a left turn situation. The minimum turn radius for the vehicle is 5.6 meters. The driver has stated that she made a "smooth" turn, and that she did not "crank" the wheel. Is there any sort of published radaii values for "typical" turns? I can see this point being a real b--h at trial, however, it would seem to me that the steering wheel turn would change as one rounded the curve. The subject approach is a typical approach in to a typcial driveway entrance.
