U-turns in residential districts are legal under which condition?

• A. On a one way street on a green arrow
• B. Across two sets of solid double yellow lines
• C. When there are no vehicles approaching nearby
• D. Never allowed

Answer: (C)

U-turns in residential areas are allowed only when you can do them safely without affecting other traffic. The key point is that you may turn around if there are no vehicles approaching nearby, so you won’t surprise or force other drivers to slow or swerve. Before turning, check that you have enough visibility and space to complete the turn in your lane. The other scenarios would create hazards: a green arrow on a one-way street doesn’t authorize a U-turn, solid double yellow lines prohibit crossing, and saying never allows no exceptions where turning safely might be possible.
