| '''U-Turns'''
| | Hello |
| | |
| U-turns are generally permitted in Missouri except where prohibited by state, local municipal law, or posted signage. U-turns are specifically prohibited at intersections controlled by a traffic signal. See [http://www.moga.mo.gov/mostatutes/stathtml/30400003411.html MO Statute 304.341(2)] for complete legal restrictions.

| For Waze routing, u-turns should only be enabled where they provide the potential for improved routing, which includes recovering from missed turns. A common example is a median-divided primary street that has homes/businesses with their driveways/entrances directly on it, where reaching them would otherwise require lengthy, multi-turn deviations through side roads in order to end up on the correct side of the median.

| The u-turn must also meet the following criteria:
| |
| #The u-turn is explicitly allowed by signage or is otherwise legal and safe.
| |
| #The turn can be completed in one continuous movement. This is not a specific legal requirement in Missouri, however would be good practice for safer navigation.
