(B) No vehicle shall be turned so as to proceed in the opposite direction upon any curve, or upon the approach to or near the crest of a grade, where the vehicle cannot be seen by the driver of any other vehicle approaching from either direction within 500 feet.
(C) No vehicle shall be turned around, commonly referred to as a “U-turn,” so as to proceed in the opposite direction in any street within a business district or at any intersection where an authorized sign prohibiting the turn has been erected.
