This is of special interest to the pacific northwest. In Oregon for sure, and probably Washington and British Columbia, U-turns are prohibited at or within a relatively short distance of a controlled intersection (meaning any intersection that has a stop sign, yield sign or traffic signal head facing one or more directions), except when explicitly permitted by signage (most common sign combination is "LEFT TURN SIGNAL - U TURN PERMITTED - NO TRUCKS." _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
