Explanation
Section 3 "Crossing, etc. (3)" of the Rules of the Road states: "When turning right to exit the road, you must move as close as possible in advance to the center of the road (on a one-way road, to the right edge) and slow down to a stop-ready speed (jokō)." On a regular road that is not one-way, you move to the center.
