You want to turn around near the top of a hill on a two-lane road, and no sign forbids U-turns. Drivers who come over the top could first see your car only when they are about 300 feet away. May you make the U-turn here?
A is near a hillcrest, with a separate side-profile inset showing the obstructed view beyond it. The card states that approaching drivers can see A from 300 ft; no legal visibility threshold is shown.
Correct answer: No, because drivers from each direction must be able to see you from 500 feet.
Why
A U-turn leaves your car slow and across the road for several seconds. Near a curve or a hilltop, drivers cannot see you in time to stop, so West Virginia law forbids a U-turn where drivers from either direction cannot see you within 500 feet. Find a place with a long, clear view, or drive on and turn around at a safe side road or lot.
