How should the manoeuvre of turning around be performed?
U-turns
Explanation
To perform a **U-turn** safely, it is essential to **intercept the road for the shortest possible time**. This means you must complete the maneuver quickly to minimize the time your vehicle is crossing or blocking traffic.
- A U-turn involves turning around to drive in the opposite direction on the same road. This maneuver should be done with a single turn of the vehicle and without using reverse gear, except in exceptional situations such as streets blocked by construction.
- It is crucial not to force other drivers to reduce their speed or create dangerous situations. If it is not safe to perform the U-turn, you should wait on the shoulder until it is safe to do so.
- The maneuver should start from the white line that separates lanes of different directions, or from the right edge if it is not possible from the white line. This helps to perform the turn more efficiently and quickly.
Performing the U-turn in this way ensures that the time the vehicle is in a potentially dangerous position is minimized, thus reducing the risk of accidents.
