Is it a violation to make a U-turn at a red light?

[DiJesse]

Making a U-turn at a red light in a left-turn lane with a U-turn sign at an intersection is not considered a violation, but it must be done without affecting the passage of other vehicles or pedestrian safety. Below are relevant details: 1. Regulations: Motor vehicles are prohibited from making U-turns at locations with no U-turn or no left-turn signs/markings, as well as at railway crossings, crosswalks, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or other potentially hazardous road sections. 2. Precautions: At intersections without traffic lights, do not blindly edge forward. At such intersections, pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles may cross unpredictably. In case of a collision at higher speeds, the consequences for pedestrians can be severe. At these intersections, always reduce speed in advance, proceed slowly while edging forward, sound the horn to alert other road users, and ensure safety before proceeding.
