There could soon be no excuse for performing an illegal U-turn with Brisbane City Council pushing to replace existing wordy signs with more visual signage.
Web crash data from the State Government shows crashes following dangerous U-turns have led to more than three deaths a year in the state.
The council’s infrastructure chairman Amanda Cooper said illegal U-turns were not only dangerous to the driver and other motorists but contributed to traffic congestion.
With current legislation, drivers can be fined $100 and lose three demerit points for disobeying a U-turn sign in Queensland.
