Explanation
A U-turn involves turning your vehicle around to go back the way you came. It is illegal and unsafe to make a U-turn near the crest of a hill or on a curve unless you can clearly see at least 500 feet in both directions. Limited visibility increases the risk of a collision with oncoming traffic. Always check for signs prohibiting U-turns and complete the maneuver quickly and safely without blocking traffic.
