Question 4077

At an intersection, is making a U-turn allowed?

  1. No, as a general rule.
  2. No, it is always prohibited.
  3. Yes, as long as the maneuver can be performed in a single turn.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, as a general rule.

Passing is prohibited at an intersection and near it, so as a general rule, you must not make a U-turn either. There are exceptions, such as a roundabout or a roadway with signs indicating right-of-way, which is why it is not always prohibited. In the image, you have a stop sign, so you do not have the right-of-way and must not make a U-turn here.
