A Memphis Left is a meneuver where a motor vehicle (particularly a pick-up truck) makes a left turn directly from the far right lane of a road comprised of four or more lanes.

A Memphis Right is just the opposite... where a vehice makes a right turn directly from the far left lane of such a road.

The phrase was coined from the observation that these meneuvers happen most frequently in Memphis, Tennesse.
