It's alright ... "IT"s all right

steer to the left ?

to come and find out ... (I think the "to" has to be there to indicate 2)

I like #2 (could also be "just over the edge"), but I feel that #1 needs to imply plural (its or it's), somehow.

Good efforts, though.

Can't believe I couldn't come up with your #1. It's obvious, now!

Your #4 nudged me to think of left-hand drive (a more-common vehicle phrase in Europe, maybe).

Agree with your #9 comment (that's why I'd changed my original "come inside, find out"; needed to account for plural).

Well done.

Not really a "common phrase", but …

just right for timeout

Spring Breakouts (or 'breakouts', if you're thinking acne)

Broken boxsprings ?

Just over the edge

Spring is bursting out all over

wallflower??

Very good #8! (I've been hung up with including 'left'.)

#6 is quite nice, too.
