How to do 3-point turn

A three-point turn, also known as a K-turn or Y-turn, is a technique used to turn a vehicle around in a small space. Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Move to the Outer Part of the Lane: As you approach the area where you plan to perform the three-point turn, move to the outer part of the lane. This gives you more room to maneuver your vehicle.

2️⃣ Check for Traffic: Before stopping, check your rearview mirror for traffic. Avoid attempting a three-point turn on a busy roadway. It’s safer to find a driveway or parking lot for this maneuver.

3️⃣ Check for Cars Behind or in Front: Stop your vehicle and check for other cars either behind or in front of you. A three-point turn takes several seconds, so try not to obstruct the roadway unnecessarily.

4️⃣ Point 1 (Left Turn): Turn your steering wheel all the way to the left and accelerate until your vehicle nears the edge of the opposing lane. This is the first point.

5️⃣ Point 2 (Reverse): Shift into reverse, turn your steering wheel to the right, and back up toward the side of the road where you originally started. Use your mirrors to guide you. This is the second point.

6️⃣ Point 3 (Forward): Shift back into forward gear and steer left to begin driving in the lane opposite of the one you started in. Check for approaching vehicles once more.
