Explanation

For answer  A 

Is prohibited the U-turn of the vehicles in all places where the voluntary stopping of the vehicles is prohibited, except for the intersections. On bridges, on and under uneven passages, as well as on viaducts the voluntary stopping of the vehicles is prohibited, and as a result, also the U-turn of the vehicles is prohibited in these places. Also, the voluntary stopping (implicitly also the U-turn of the vehicles) is prohibited also in the places where overtaking is prohibited, and overtaking is prohibited on uneven passages, on bridges, under bridges and in tunnels.


For answer  B 

On roads with two traffic lanes per direction the U-turn is permitted, but on the condition that the road signalling in that place or other traffic rules do not prohibit this maneuver.

We draw attention that in answer B it is about the roads with two-way traffic that have two traffic lanes on each direction of travel. It is not about the one-way roads.


For answer  C 

When encountering the sign “Speed limit” the U-turn is permitted, but on the condition that the road signalling in that place or other traffic rules do not prohibit this maneuver.


The correct answer is: A
