Question 586 of 802

In what situation is the U-turn prohibited?

A near tram stations;
B when visibility is reduced below 100 m;
C in places where the solidity of the road does not allow it.

Explanation

For answer  A 

Considering that the road legislation prohibits the U-turn maneuver also in places where the voluntary stopping of vehicles is prohibited, we understand that the U-turn maneuver is prohibited in the stations of public passenger transport means, as well as at less than 25 meters before and after them, because in these places the stopping maneuver is prohibited and automatically the U-turn maneuver is also prohibited.

Attention! The road legislation says “at less than 25 meters” but answer A says “near tram stations” and near can mean also more than those 25 meters. Therefore, answer A cannot be correct.


For answer  B 

Considering that the road legislation prohibits the U-turn maneuver also in places where the voluntary stopping of vehicles is prohibited, we understand that the U-turn maneuver is prohibited in curves and in other places with visibility reduced below 50 m, because in these places the stopping maneuver is prohibited and automatically the U-turn maneuver is also prohibited.

Attention! The road legislation says “with visibility reduced below 50 m” but answer B says “when visibility is reduced below 100 m”. Therefore, answer B cannot be correct.


For answer  C 

The road legislation prohibits the U-turn of vehicles in places where the solidity of the road does not allow the maneuver. For example, in a place where the edge of the road is not solid and may give way, the U-turn of vehicles is not permitted because it cannot be performed in safe conditions.

We recommend that you also consult the articles of the updated road legislation found slightly below.


The correct answer is: C
