Answer:

All three clauses in the sentence are independent clauses:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that can convey a complete thought on its own, being able to stand alone as a sentence. In other words, when you read an independent clause alone, it makes perfect sense.

In the sentence we are analyzing here, three independent clauses were put together, combined with a comma between the firs two, and a comma plus the coordinating conjunction "and" between the final two.

"She turned left, he steered right, and I kept going straight ahead."

If we separate each clause, they will still make perfect sense alone:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead
