If there is no "No U Turn" sign at a signal, is it safe to assume that a U turn IS permitted at that signal?

Question

If there is no "No U Turn" sign at a signal, is it safe to assume that a U turn IS permitted at that signal?

Answer 1

Typically yes, although some towns/cities have odd laws. I would assume it would be ok and do it if need be.

Answer 2

If there is no U-Turn sign present then you can make this turn however doing so will put you and others at risk and what ever happens will be completely your fault.....

Answer 3

yes..:D

Answer 4

NO !!

U turns are NEVER allowed at intersections. NEVER.

Those signs are their just as reminder - because they are particularly busy and dangerous intersections.

Good Luck...

Answer 5

It depends on the city. In tulsa, Ok. they finally passed a U-turn law a few years back. Now everyone thinks it's ok to do U-turns anywhere they please. The law actually states that U-turns are illegal:

On a hill.

If it becomes a 3 point turn instead of a U-turn.

At any intersection with a traffic control device, i.e. a stop light.

Since most cities have a "right turn on red after stop" law, you would not want someone making a U-turn on the cross street as you made your right hand turn.

Answer 6

Yes, unless it's local law not to perform U-turns

Where I lived in Florida, it is illeagel to perform any u-turn if it interferres with any traffic, even if a sign isn't posted.  That means if you make traffic stop behind you because your stupid *** wants to take a short cut, then it's a ticket.  Or if your stupid *** makes a u-turn which causes the on coming traffic to slow down cause you pulled out in front of them; it's illeagel.  However, if you made a U-turn without interferring with any other traffic, then it was perfectly legal.

Answer 7

wate what? Don't confuse me!

Answer 8

It is illegal and you might be cited for it.
