- Making a U-Turn
Making proper right turns, left turns, and U-turns just takes practice. When making turns, always remember to turn on your blinker, reduce your speed, and check for oncoming traffic and pedestrians. When making U-turns, make sure to check for road signs to see if they are allowed.
Turn it on 100 feet (30 meters) or one whole city block before the turn. As you approach the turn, drive closer to the right side of the street. This will signal to cars that you are preparing to turn ahead.
Reduce your speed to 10 to 15 mph (16 to 24 kph).
Do this by placing your foot on the brake pedal. As you reduce your speed, glance at your rear view and right-hand mirror to see if the cars behind you are slowing down.
If you notice that the cars behind you are not slowing down, tap your break pedal a couple times to signal that you are braking.
Check for pedestrians, cyclists, motorcycles, and other vehicles.
Do this by looking into your right-hand mirror and by looking back over your right shoulder. Once your path is clear, make the right turn by turning your steering wheel to the right.
Pay attention to the road signs.
You want to do this because left turns aren’t always allowed. If you see a sign saying that a left turn is illegal, then keep driving until you can make a legal left turn.
For example, some traffic lights and intersections prohibit left turns.
Do this at least 100 feet (30 meters) before the actual turn. As you approach the turn, reduce your speed to 10 to 15 miles per hour (16 to 24 kph) by pressing the break pedal. Get as close to the centerline or median as possible.
Use the center left lane if one is available to make your left turn.
Do not attempt to make a left turn from a right lane.
Check for signs prohibiting U-turns.
You may make U-turns only if you are crossing a double yellow line, there is a “U-turn Only” sign, you are in a residential area, and if you are in the far left lane and no sign is prohibiting U-turns.
You may also make a U-turn on a divided highway if there is an opening in the center divider and the opening is not reserved for law enforcement or emergency vehicles.
Turn your left signal on and reduce your speed.
Once you approach your turn, get as close to the centerline of the road as possible and come to a complete stop. Observe the traffic and check for oncoming vehicles and motorcycles, as well as pedestrians and bicycles.
Oncoming vehicles must be more than 200 feet (60 meters) away before making a U-turn.

How to make a U-Turn? In order to successfully complete a U-turn, you will need to follow a few steps. Be sure that the path is clear (approaching vehicles should be more than 200 feet away and the crosswalk should be free of pedestrians).
A U-turn is a common driving maneuver that allows you to turn back around in the opposite direction without having to reverse or make multiple turns. In places where u-turns are allowed, the maneuver is the quickest way to continue driving in the other direction.
How to Make a U-Turn. U-turns are an ideal way to spin around on wider roads or highways with ample room. Please note, U-turns are not allowed on many streets, so be sure to check for any signs indicating if they're prohibited. Signal left from the far-left lane. Stop and check for traffic.
