Are U-turns legal in Rhode Island?

I have two weeks off between jobs and I decided that I could probably see the entirety of Rhode Island within that timespan. But since I’ve never driven in Rhode Island before, I want to make sure I don’t get a ticket. Can I legally make a U-turn in Rhode Island?

Eric Schad · Updated on Jul 22, 2022

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.

Two weeks is probably the perfect amount of time to experience everything that

has to offer. Plus, it’s easily traversable by car and U-turns are legal in Rhode Island, so you can always turn around quickly if you miss your destination.

To execute a U-turn safely, just make sure to follow these steps:

Don’t make a U-turn if it’s explicitly prohibited by a street sign

Only make a U-turn if you’re in the left-most lane

Yield to all oncoming cars, cyclists, and pedestrians before you make the U-turn

On a road trip to Rhode Island, you may not put safety first. But adding

towing and labor coverage

can provide some added peace of mind. Just make sure to use the

app to find the most affordable rate.
