Is it allowed to make a U-turn at a traffic light intersection?
1 Answers
At a traffic light intersection without a no U-turn sign and with a sign allowing left turns on red, you can make a U-turn from the leftmost lane. Driving in the opposite direction will result in a three-point penalty if caught. Rules for making a U-turn: At a traffic light intersection, you can make a U-turn without looking at the traffic signal if your vehicle does not cross the stop line of the left-turn lane at the intersection; does not occupy solid lane division lines, pedestrian crossings, guide lines, safety islands, or other traffic markings; and does not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. Precautions: Intersections where you can make a U-turn without looking at the traffic signal facilitate quick departure for U-turning vehicles, but U-turning vehicles do not have the right of way and must not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. If an accident occurs, the U-turning vehicle will be held responsible.
