U-turns
Explanation
To understand why it is prohibited to change the direction of travel in certain places, it is important to consider the situations in which **overtaking is not allowed**. These situations include:
- **Curves and hill crests** where visibility is limited.
- **Adverse weather conditions**, such as fog or heavy rain.
- **Level crossings and tunnels**, where safety is a priority.
- **Motorways and dual carriageways**, except in areas specifically designated for it.
- **One-way roads and paths**.
In all these places, changing direction is prohibited because it could endanger road safety. However, if there is a sign that **specifically authorizes the change of direction**, then it can be done. This ensures that the change of direction is carried out safely and in a controlled manner.
