Is it allowed to make a U-turn in front of a crosswalk?
1 Answers
If there is a U-turn sign in front of the crosswalk and the left side of the car is a dashed line, you can make a U-turn directly without being restricted by traffic lights. If there is a guardrail in the middle of the road, you cannot make a U-turn directly and must cross the crosswalk before making a U-turn. Prohibited U-turn situations are as follows: U-turns are prohibited when there is a 'No U-turn' sign or a 'No Left Turn' sign: If there is a sign prohibiting U-turns, then U-turns are not allowed at that intersection. A U-turn is an extension of a left turn, so if there is a sign prohibiting left turns at an intersection, U-turns are also prohibited there. U-turns are prohibited at crosswalks: U-turns are not allowed at crosswalks. If U-turns are permitted at an intersection, you must cross the crosswalk before making a U-turn and cannot make a U-turn on the crosswalk. U-turns are prohibited when there is no left-turn lane: Even if you are in the leftmost lane, if there is no sign permitting left turns, U-turns are not allowed. U-turns are prohibited within the second left-turn lane: When a vehicle is in the second left-turn lane, it cannot make a U-turn. In the absence of any signs, vehicles can only make U-turns in the innermost left-turn lane. U-turns are prohibited at solid yellow lines: U-turns are not allowed at solid yellow lines. Even if there is a sign permitting U-turns, you must wait for the green light and cross the stop line before making a U-turn. U-turns are prohibited on highways: Crossing the central divider to make a U-turn on a highway is illegal and will result in a fine and 12 demerit points. If you miss an exit on the highway, continue driving to the next exit and leave the highway. Do not attempt an illegal U-turn. Precautions for U-turns: When making a U-turn, you should turn on the left turn signal in advance, the maximum speed should not exceed 30 kilometers per hour, and you must not hinder other vehicles and pedestrians traveling normally.
