Can you make a U-turn at this intersection?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
NO
Explanation
In the video you have stopped before a pedestrian crossing at a junction in town; on the right the traffic lights show red, and above them hangs sign B-21 "no left turn"; a second such sign can be seen on the left side of the junction. You are not allowed to make a U-turn at this junction. The answer is: no.
The Regulation on road signs and signals states that sign B-21 prohibits turning left and also prohibits U-turns, and the ban applies at the nearest junction; a sign placed within a junction applies to the nearest roadway in front of which it has been placed. The red signal also prohibits entry beyond the traffic lights, but even after it changes to green, a U-turn here remains prohibited. At this junction you go straight on or turn right, and if you want to go back, you choose the next junction without such a sign.
Legal basis: § 22 para. 1 point 1, para. 2 and 3 and § 95 para. 1 point 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals
