Can a motorcycle make a U-turn in the left-turn lane?
1 Answers
Left-turn lanes may or may not allow U-turns, depending on the signage at the intersection. Below are the scenarios where U-turns are and are not permitted: 1. Permitted U-turns: Left-turn guide lanes and the method of U-turning in left-turn guide lanes. The key point is whether the left-turn stop line and the crosswalk are separated by a dashed line—if so, an early left turn is allowed. However, whether a left turn is permitted on a red light depends on the presence of guardrails or green islands. 2. Prohibited U-turns: Intersections with 'No Left Turn' signs do not permit left turns or U-turns! This point is quite clear to everyone—'No Left Turn' is equivalent to prohibiting U-turns in the left direction.
