Question 373 of 802

What is the optimal route to make a U-turn in the intersection shown?

A route 1;
B route 2;
C route 3.

Explanation

In this intersection the traffic takes place in a roundabout. It is recommended to the drivers of vehicles who wish to travel through an intersection with roundabout to move onto the traffic lanes inside it, depending on the desired direction of travel, as follows:

  • those who wish to travel on the first road to the right will move onto the lane next to the curb the sidewalk or the shoulder;
  • those who wish to travel straight ahead will move onto any of the lanes, but if the roundabout has more than 2 lanes, it will be avoided to travel on the lane that is the most in the center of the intersection;
  • and those who wish to travel to the left or to make a U-turn will move onto the lane that is the most in the center of the intersection.

Therefore, to make a U-turn with the motor vehicle in this intersection with roundabout, among the three indicated routes, route number 2 is the optimal one.

The correct answer is: B

(1) At the intersections provided with signs and/or with markings for signalling the direction of travel, the drivers of vehicles must move into position on the lanes corresponding to the desired direction of travel at least 50 m before the intersection and are obliged to respect the meaning of the signs and markings.

(2) At the intersections without markings for delimiting the lanes, the drivers of vehicles occupy while moving, at least 50 m before the intersection, the following positions:
a) the row next to the curb or shoulder, those who want to change the direction of travel to the right;
b) the row next to the axis of the road or next to the marking for separating the directions, those who want to change the direction of travel to the left. When the traffic takes place on one-way roads, the drivers of vehicles who intend to turn left are obliged to occupy the row next to the curb or the shoulder on the left side;
c) either of the rows, those who want to go straight ahead.
