U-turns are prohibited in locations where visibility is reduced, such as on humps, curves, intersections, or junctions with reduced visibility. They are also forbidden on bridges, in tunnels, at level crossings, and wherever the road characteristics or heavy traffic make the manoeuvre unsafe or obstructive.
No, U-turns are strictly prohibited on motorways (autoestradas) and express roads (vias rápidas) in Portugal. These roads are designed for high-speed, unidirectional traffic, and performing a U-turn would be extremely dangerous and illegal, leading to significant penalties.
Even without a specific prohibitory sign, a U-turn is generally not allowed at intersections if it would cause danger or obstruction to other road users, or if visibility is insufficient. The general safety principle of the Código da Estrada always applies. Using a roundabout is often a safer alternative.
Roundabouts provide a safe and legal way to change direction (perform a U-turn) on many roads where a direct U-turn might be prohibited, unsafe, or difficult. They are a recommended alternative when you need to invert your direction of travel.
No, the absence of a specific 'No U-turn' sign does not automatically grant permission. You must always consider the general rules for safe manoeuvres, visibility, road conditions, traffic intensity, and specific prohibitions like those in tunnels or on bridges, as defined by the Código da Estrada.
By completing U-Turn Rules, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Portugal. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
