Correct answer
Turning 180 degrees to continue travelling on the same road but in the opposite direction
It means turning around to continue along the same road in the opposite direction. Leaving that road to take another describes a change of direction instead. A turn to reverse the direction of travel is allowed only where permitted and safe, after checking that other road users will not be endangered or obstructed and signalling your intention. The definition does not require completing the turn in a single arc.
