A white sign shows a black U-shaped arrow with a red circle and slash over it. What does the sign prohibit?
Correct answer: Turning around to go back the way you came
Why
Any sign with a red circle and slash tells you not to make the movement shown inside it, such as a left turn, a right turn or a U-turn. Even where no sign is posted, New Jersey law bans U-turns on curves, near the top of a hill, and where other drivers cannot see your vehicle from 500 feet away. Keep going and turn around at a legal, safe place.
