Gap selection for right turns is a skill that will take time and practice to develop. As with left turns, the faster the traffic, the more time and space you need to complete a right turn. This is necessary because you need to quickly match the speed of the traffic on the road that you are entering. While you have to cover more road to complete a right turn, because it is shallower you can generally accelerate quite quickly. The next picture shows the path taken by a left and right turning vehicle. Right turns are generally less sharp than left turns. At an uncontrolled intersection (four-way intersection with no Stop or Give Way signs) you may also have to watch for approaching traffic. You may also need to give way to pedestrians crossing the road that you are entering. Right turns are more complicated than left turns because you need to look for traffic approaching from the left and right.
