Sec. 18-63. Right of way when vehicle turns to left.[217]

The driver of a vehicle, in an intersection and turning
therein to the left across the line of travel of vehicles within
or approaching the intersection shall yield the right of way
to such other vehicles; provided, however, that where there
is an automatic signal device governing the flow of traffic at
any intersection and allowing turns to the left while all other
vehicular traffic is required to stop, any vehicle making such
turn shall have the right of way over all other vehicles approaching
the intersection. (Code 1959, § 18-63.)
