ROAD SAFETY ROAD RULES 2017 - REG 38

Giving way when making a U-turn

    (1)     A driver making a U-turn must give way to all vehicles and pedestrians.

Penalty:     5 penalty units.

Note

For this rule, "give way" means the driver must slow down and, if necessary, stop to avoid a collision—see the definition in the dictionary.

    (2)     Despite subrule (1), a driver making a U-turn does not have to give way to a driver entering the road from a road related area or adjacent land.

Notes

1     Adjacent land is defined in the dictionary and road related area is defined in rule 13.

2     For the case of a driver entering a road from a road related area or adjacent land, see rule 74.

    (3)     In this rule—

"road" does not include a road related area.

Note

A "road related area" includes any shoulder of a road—see rule 13.
