'bear left' 10:25 Jul 24, 2015
Usually indicates that there is no specific 'turn' involved — it's the sort of instruction you might get at a Y junction (though 'fork left' might be commoner); it's the sort of thing where, for example, the main road bends to the left, but there is another side road going off to the right in the bend, and the person giving directions wants to make sure you stay on the main road and keep on going round to the left. Of course, in a case where the 'main' and 'side' roads were reversed compared to my example, the instruction might be more significant. |
