tagasipööramist

Tagasipööramist, often translated as "u-turn" in English, refers to the maneuver of reversing direction in a roadway. This action is typically performed by driving a vehicle in a semicircular path to change from one direction of travel to the opposite. The legality and safety of tagasipööramist are subject to local traffic laws and road conditions.

In many jurisdictions, tagasipööramist is permitted only at designated locations or where it is explicitly allowed by signage. Drivers are usually required to ensure that the maneuver can be completed safely, without impeding other traffic or creating a hazard. This often involves checking for oncoming vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, and ensuring sufficient space and visibility.

Performing a tagasipööramist in an inappropriate place, such as on a curve, a hill, or in a no-passing zone, can be dangerous and may result in traffic citations. The maneuver requires careful attention and coordination to execute effectively. Drivers should always prioritize safety and adhere to traffic regulations when considering a tagasipööramist. Some vehicles may be better suited for this maneuver due to their turning radius.
