==Turns== When one road at a 3-way junction has a higher traffic volume than the other (and particularly when the roads are perpendicular to each other), turns are characterized as "right-in", "right-out", "left-in" and "left-out". A turn "in" represents a turn from the major road into the minor road. A turn "out" represents a turn out of the minor road onto the major road. A 3-way junction allowing all four of these turns is characterized as "full-movement". These terms also apply to turns between roads and driveways.<ref>{{ cite web | author = Staff | publisher = [[Federal Highway Administration]] | url = http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/intersection/resources/fhwasa10002/ppt/ | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100529072750/http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov//intersection/resources/fhwasa10002/ppt/ | url-status = dead | archive-date = May 29, 2010 | title = Technical Summary (FHWA-SA-10-002) | work = Access Management in the Vicinity of Intersections | access-date = August 31, 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{ cite journal | author = Joe G.
