Tu turno

U-turn

Un giro en U en la conducción se refiere a realizar una rotación de 180 grados para invertir la dirección de desplazamiento. Se llama "giro en U" porque la maniobra se parece a la letra U. En algunas áreas, la maniobra es ilegal, mientras que en otros, se trata como un giro más ordinario, simplemente extendido. En otras áreas aún, los carriles son ocasionalmente marcados como "U-turn permitido" o incluso "U-turn solamente". Ocasionalmente, en una carretera dividida, existen rampas de giro en U especiales para permitir que el tráfico haga un giro en "U", aunque a menudo su uso está restringido sólo a vehículos de emergencia y de policía. En los Estados Unidos, las regulaciones de giro en "U" varían según el estado: en Indiana las vueltas en U son permitidas siempre y cuando el conductor siga todas las precauciones normalmente atribuidas a hacer un giro a la izquierda. Muchos lugares, incluyendo Texas y Georgia, tienen carriles de giro en U especialmente diseñados. En Michigan, los giros en U son necesarios para muchos giros a la izquierda hacia y desde las carreteras divididas, como parte de la maniobra izquierda de Michigan. También puede utilizarse para significar una reversión repentina de la política en la política.

A U-turn in driving refers to performing a 180 degree rotation to reverse the direction of travel. It is called a "U-turn" because the maneuver looks like the letter U. In some areas, the maneuver is illegal, while in others, it is treated as a more ordinary turn, merely extended. In still other areas, lanes are occasionally marked "U-turn permitted" or even "U-turn only." Occasionally, on a divided highway, special U-turn ramps exist to allow traffic to make a U-turn, though often their use is restricted to emergency and police vehicles only. In the United States, U-turn regulations vary by state: in Indiana U-turns are allowed as long as the driver follows all of the precautions normally ascribed to making a left turn. Many places, including Texas and Georgia, have specially designed U-turn lanes. In Michigan, U-turns are required for many left turns to and from divided highways, as part of the Michigan Left maneuver. It can also be used to mean a sudden reversal of policy in politics.
