Is a U-turn allowed when left turns are prohibited?
1 Answers
In the absence of a no U-turn sign, a U-turn is permitted. Below are specific scenarios: First scenario: First, check nearby traffic signs for any no U-turn or no left turn signs. If there are no prohibitive signs, you can safely make a U-turn. However, when approaching an intersection, if you see a dashed central divider, you can perform the U-turn in the dashed area. If there isn't one, you need to drive past the stop line before making the U-turn, but this is only permissible when the traffic light is green. Second scenario: If you notice a solid dividing line on the road, it means U-turns are not allowed. If a driver needs to make a U-turn, they must proceed beyond the crosswalk. Additionally, at an intersection, a U-turn is not permitted when the light is red. In certain special road sections, such as pedestrian crossings, railway crossings, sharp curves, etc., U-turns are also prohibited.
