Turning round
In the course of driving, motorists may need to change the course of their direction. This can be achieved by making U-turns or the "three-point turn" in areas where they are permitted.
Generally, you may turn around only in areas where traffic is low such as parking garages, side roads. petrol stations, private driveways and in designated areas.
