Explanation
You are only allowed to make a U-turn from the left lane closest to the centerline, never from the right lane. U-turns must not be made in areas with poor visibility, such as near a hill or a curve in the road. U-turns can be extremely dangerous and are not legal everywhere. Do not attempt a U-turn unless absolutely necessary, and always check for signs prohibiting the maneuver before proceeding.
