I don't know if the solution is simple, but the answer is. The reason that it
'automatically' goes to the clip on the left is simply because there is no head
room on the clip on the right. Simply put, there is no frames in the clip on
the right that Premiere Pro can use to transition.
And if you don't have enough head room on either clip, you will get a message
stating that Premiere doesn't have enough room to make the transition and the
frames will be clipped, or something like that.
What you need to do is drag the beginning part of the clip without headroom
to the right (don't move the clip, just make it shorter). Then when you
reconnect the clip to the one before it, it will have headroom.
If there is no way you can shorten the clip, here's what I do: I take the
clip on the right and move it up one track (from track one to track two). I
then take the clip on the top track and overlap the bottom clip by however long
I want my transition to be (let's use the default of one second). I then drag
my transition to the clip on the top track. What this does is then transitions
the top clip over the bottom clip, and then you have your transition.
I hope this all makes sense and helps. Good luck.

I'm using Premiere 1.5 and lately I am unable to put a transition
between two clips. When I drag a clip to the timeline it automatically
jumps to the beginning of the clip on the right. I can use the Effect
Controls to put the transition between the clips, but the transition is
then "x-ed" out (actually, it's diagonal bars) on the clip to the
left. I can only put the transition in the beginning or end of the
right clip.
I'm sure this is a simple problem but I've not run into it before. Any
help is appreciated.
