Is a U-turn allowed in this place?
Answer options
Explanation
Allowed only if visibility is 100 metres or more. Nothing in the picture prohibits a U-turn; the constraint comes from the shape of the road itself — it is narrow, curves to the right and trees hide its edge, so the continuation beyond the bend is out of your sight. The rule prohibits a U-turn where visibility in at least one direction is under 100 m, so the answer is conditional. The figure is not arbitrary: a car coming out of the bend at about 90 km/h covers 100 m in roughly four seconds, which is the minimum needed to see, react and brake. Do not read the broken centre line as permission — it only allows you to cross the line and does not cancel the visibility condition.
