Can You Make a U-Turn When the Left-Turn Signal is Red?

[VanKinsley]

Whether you can make a U-turn when the left-turn signal is red depends on three scenarios: 1. If there is a no-left-turn sign at the intersection, you cannot make a U-turn when the left-turn signal is red. 2. If there is no no-left-turn sign at the intersection, you can make a U-turn when the left-turn signal is red. 3. Before reaching the stop line, if there is a dashed-line gap in the middle of the road, you can make a U-turn as long as there is no no-U-turn sign at the gap; if there is a no-U-turn sign or a solid line at the gap, you must proceed to the stop line position to make a U-turn. The following situations prohibit U-turns: 1. U-turns are not allowed on crosswalks. 2. U-turns are not allowed when there is no left-turn lane. 3. U-turns are not allowed if there is a no-U-turn or no-left-turn sign. 4. U-turns are not allowed when the center line of the road is a solid yellow line. 5. U-turns are not allowed on yellow grid lines.
