A.
The driver of a vehicle intending to turn at an intersection shall
do so as follows:
1.
Right Turns. Both the approach for a right
turn and a right turn shall be made as close as practicable to the
right-hand curb or edge of the roadway, except where multiple turn
lanes have been established.
2.
Left Turns On Two-Way Roadways. At any intersection
where traffic is permitted to move in both directions on each roadway
entering the intersection, an approach for a left turn shall be made
in that portion of the right-half of the roadway nearest the center
line thereof and by passing to the right of such center line where
it enters the intersection and after entering the intersection the
left turn shall be made so as to leave the intersection to the right
of the center line of the roadway being entered. Whenever practicable,
the left turn shall be made in that portion of the intersection to
the left of the center of the intersection.
3.
Left Turns On Other Than Two-Way Roadways. At any intersection where traffic is restricted to one (1) direction
on one (1) or more of the roadways, the driver of a vehicle intending
to turn left at any such intersection shall approach the intersection
in the extreme left-hand lane lawfully available to traffic moving
in the direction of travel of such vehicle and after entering the
intersection the left turn shall be made so as to leave the intersection,
as nearly as practicable, in the left-hand lane lawfully available
to traffic moving in such direction upon the roadway being entered,
except where multiple turn lanes have been established.
4.
Designated Two-Way Left-Turn Lanes. Where
a special lane for making left turns by drivers proceeding in opposite
directions have been indicated by official traffic control devices:
a.
A left turn shall not be made from any other lane;
b.
A vehicle shall not be driven in the lane except when preparing
for or making a left turn from or into the roadway or when preparing
for or making a U-turn when otherwise permitted by law;
c.
A vehicle shall not be driven in the lane for a distance more
than five hundred (500) feet.
A.
The Village Traffic Engineer is authorized to place markers, buttons
or signs within or adjacent to intersections indicating the course
to be traveled by vehicles turning at such intersections, and such
course to be traveled as so indicated may conform to or be other than
as prescribed by law or ordinance.
B.
When authorized markers, buttons or other indications are placed
within an intersection indicating the course to be traveled by vehicles
turning thereat, no driver of a vehicle shall disobey the directions
of such indications.
The Village Traffic Engineer is hereby authorized to determine
those intersections at which drivers of vehicles shall not make a
right, left or U-turn and shall place proper signs at such intersections.
The making of such turns may be prohibited between certain hours of
any day and permitted at other hours, in which event the same shall
be plainly indicated on the signs or they may be removed when such
turns are permitted.
Whenever authorized signs are erected indicating that no right
or left or U-turn is permitted, no driver of a vehicle shall disobey
the directions of any such sign.
The driver of any vehicle shall not turn such vehicle so as
to proceed in the opposite direction upon any street in a business
district and shall not upon any other street so turn a vehicle unless
such movement can be made in safety and without interfering with other
traffic.
