BDifficulty 3/5

At a marked pedestrian crossing, with no express authorisation for a U-turn, is a U-turn permitted?

Correct answer

No, it is prohibited.

No. Article 79 prohibits U-turns on sections where overtaking is prohibited unless a U-turn is expressly authorised, as well as at other listed places. A pedestrian crossing is subject to the overtaking prohibition and its specific conditions; it is not a place for an ordinary U-turn. Do not confuse turning into another road with reversing the direction of travel.
