    "Tennessee Law TCA – 55-8-115

    Tip#34 “U” Turns are prohibited except on divided highways.
    Tennessee State law states that you may not make a U-turn at any intersection controlled by a traffic light or police officer or any location where a U-turn is prohibited by signs or markings. It is also illegal to make a U-turn on an Interstate Highway, two lanes or four-lane road where there is no median. Emergency crossovers are for emergency vehicles and highway maintenance crews only. (Tennessee State Driver’s Manual)"


    Also, that is not a rural highway. That spot is inside the city limits of Shelbyville.

    I guess that's why he was not cited.
    55-8-115 - Driving on right side of roadway Exceptions. ?????????

    55-8-141. Turning on curve or crest of grade prohibited Penalty.
    (a)
    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 five hundred feet (500¢).

    I do stand corrected its only 500 feet, not yards. I like the yards better though 500 feet is not that far.....
