Illegal U-Turn charges in Utah
An illegal U-turn is charged for turning where prohibited by signage, at certain intersections, or where visibility is limited. Many drivers are cited without realizing a U-turn was restricted there. In Utah, a conviction adds demerit points toward the Utah DLD (Driver License Division) suspension threshold of 200 points in 3 years, and the conviction follows you to your insurer.
Why fight your Illegal U-Turn ticket?
Defenses that actually work
Attorneys examine whether prohibiting signs were present and visible, the exact location of the turn, and whether the restriction legally applied.
What's at stake in Utah
The conviction typically adds points despite a modest fine, with the usual insurance consequences. In Utah, points accumulate toward suspension at 200 points in 3 years.
Prevent insurance increases
A illegal u-turn conviction can raise Utah premiums by roughly 25% — often for three years. Fighting the ticket can prevent that.
Flat fee, no financial risk
You pay a one-time flat fee regardless of how much attorney time your case takes. If we can't match you, you pay nothing.
