Correct answer
Make a U-turn to travel against the permitted direction.
Make a U-turn to travel against the permitted direction. This differs from turning onto another road where allowed. Article 79 establishes other prohibitions, such as level crossings, tunnels and underpasses; on motorways and Spanish dual carriageways it recognises designated facilities, and where overtaking is prohibited it allows expressly authorised U-turns. A moped also has no ordinary access to motorways or Spanish dual carriageways.
