South Metro 1 minute ago. My confusion concerns Oregon Vehicle Code A U-turn is illegal 1 a "Within an intersection where traffic is controlled by an electrical signal. This paragraph does not apply where posted otherwise. The only situation I can think of that would not apply would be at a place with good visibility on a highway where one intersection is in a city and the next intersection is in an unincorporated area.

These situations have to be very limited. Why do you think clause A is in this statute? Why doesn't the code just say U-turns are illegal unless posted otherwise within city limits and in unincorporated areas where you cannot be seen by drivers approaching in either direction for 1, feet?

This is certainly not the best written or easiest to understand law that is on the books, with that I'll agree. Where you've missed something is in part 1 a that prohibits U-turns within intersections controlled by an electrical signal. Thus, they would be allowed at intersections without electrical signals as long as the sight distances are met.

That's where clause A would come into play, and why it's in the law.
