Northern Territory · Driver Knowledge Test · Road rules

May you make a U-turn at an intersection controlled by traffic lights?

The answer

  • Only if a U-TURN PERMITTED sign is displayed Correct
  • Yes, but only on a red light
  • Only between 9am and 4pm
  • Yes, at any set of traffic lights

Why that's the answer

U-turns at traffic lights are only allowed where a U-TURN PERMITTED sign is displayed. Anywhere you do make a U-turn, you must have a clear view and give way to all other traffic and pedestrians.
