Question 119 in the bank

From which lane is it permitted to perform a U-turn to the left?

  1. Correct answer: From a left-hand lane or from any other lane, provided that there is no road marking or road sign that prohibit turning from this lane.
  2. Only from the left lane.
  3. Only from a lane in which a straight (forward) arrow is marked on the roadway.
  4. From the lane in which a straight (forward) arrow is marked, that is closest to the separation area.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: From a left-hand lane or from any other lane, provided that there is no road marking or road sign that prohibit turning from this lane.

A left U-turn is allowed from a left-turn lane, and also from any other lane with no road marking or road sign prohibiting such a turn. What matters is what the lane arrows and signs allow, not only the lane's position. So saying it is allowed only from the left lane is wrong, and a straight arrow is not a requirement for a U-turn.
