Are you allowed in the presented situation to make a U-turn at the intersection?

Description

§ 97. para. 1 and 3 in conjunction with § 87. para. 2 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended)

Explanation

Correct answer: No

In the situation shown, the S-3 directional traffic light displays a green arrow pointing left. According to § 97 para. 3 of the Regulation on road signs and signals, this signal permits entry into the intersection only in the direction indicated by the arrow. Unlike a general green light, a left arrow on an S-3 signal does not permit a U-turn.
