Are U-turns legal in Kansas?

My daughter is thinking about attending the University of Kansas, but before she commits, we want to visit the campus. We’re going to drive there, so I want to be sure I know the local driving laws. Can I make a U-turn in Kansas?

The University of Kansas is a great school, so congrats to your daughter if she plans to attend! If you’re going on a road trip to
Kansas
, don’t stress about U-turns. U-turns are legal in Kansas, just as long as you follow these steps:
  • Don’t make a U-turn where prohibited by a No U-turn sign
  • Yield to oncoming traffic and take extra caution to look out for farming equipment when you’re in rural areas
  • Always make your U-turn from the left-most lane
Keep in mind that failure to adhere to these guidelines or making an illegal U-turn can result in a fine of $75 in Kansas.
Whether you’re going on a long or short road trip, you may want to add
towing and labor coverage
, which functions as roadside assistance on your car insurance policy. Just make sure to compare rates on the
