At an intersection with a safety sign permitting U-turns, you want to make a U-turn on a green light. Car A is coming straight toward you from the opposite direction. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is in lane 1 with the left signal on, about to make a U-turn
- Green light ahead
- Car A is coming straight from the opposite direction
Even where U-turns are allowed, you must not make one if it may obstruct the normal passage of pedestrians or other vehicles (Article 18(1) of the Road Traffic Act). A U-turn sign means you MAY turn, not that you have priority; also check how long the turn signal must stay on (Article 38(1)).
Answer: ④, ⑤
Explanation
Even where U-turns are permitted, you must not make one if it may obstruct the normal passage of pedestrians or other vehicles (Road Traffic Act Article 18(1)), so wait until car A, going straight on its green light, has passed. You must keep signalling with the turn signal until the U-turn is finished (Article 38(1)). A U-turn sign gives you no priority, and stopping car A with the horn or swinging wide from lane 2 is dangerous.
