signs
What does this NO U-TURN sign mean in Massachusetts?
- U-turns are allowed after a complete stop
- Only trucks may not make a U-turn
- U-turns are allowed when no traffic is visible
- You cannot make a U-turn where the sign is posted
Answer: You cannot make a U-turn where the sign is posted. The sign is absolute where it is posted: no U-turn, for any vehicle, at any time, regardless of a stop or an empty road. The manual notes that NO U-TURN is one of the signs that uses only an image, the curved arrow inside a red circle with a slash. Drivers who want to reverse direction continue to the next intersection where turning around is legal. The sign usually appears where sight distance or traffic volume makes a U-turn dangerous.
