Under what conditions are U-turns legal?
<p>Where are U-turns legal in Wisconsin, and specifically Milwaukee? At intersections? In roads? Across interstate medians?</p>

<p>U-Turns are legal in Wisconsin except <a href="https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/346/v/33" rel="nofollow noreferrer">in certain situations where they are restricted</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>346.33  U-turns. (1)  The operator of a vehicle may not make a U-turn upon a highway at any of the following places:</p>
<p>346.33(1)(a)(a) At any intersection at which traffic is being controlled by a traffic officer unless instructed by the officer to
make a U-turn.</p>
<p>(b) In mid-block on any street in a business district,
except where the highway is a divided highway and where the U-turn is
made at an opening or crossover established by the authority in charge
of the maintenance of the highway.</p>
<p>(c) In mid-block on any through
highway in a residence district, except where the highway is a divided
highway and where the U-turn is made at an opening or crossover
established by the authority in charge of the maintenance of the
highway.</p>
<p>(d) At any place where signs prohibiting a U-turn have been
erected by the authority in charge of the maintenance of the highway.</p>
<p>(e) Upon a curve or upon the approach to or near the crest of a grade
on any undivided highway where the vehicle cannot be seen by the
driver of any other vehicle within 500 feet approaching from any
direction.</p>
<p>(f) At any place where a U-turn cannot be made safely or
without interfering with other traffic.</p>
<p>(1m) The operator of a vehicle
shall exercise due care when making a U-turn upon a highway and shall
only make a U-turn when the movement can be made safely and without
interfering with other traffic.</p>
<p>(2) The operator of a vehicle may not
back the vehicle at an intersection controlled by an official traffic
control device for the purpose of making a U-turn.</p>
<p>(3) In this
section, “mid-block&quot; means any part of a street or highway other than
an intersection.</p>

<p>As an aside, U-turns are also legal in Indiana, but <a href="https://www.blackburnandgreen.com/yes-u-turns-mostly-legal-indiana/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">are similarly restricted</a>.</p>
