[Anthony Panozzo]

Well this is the situation, TheSwavu is directly emailing me telling me it is perfectly legal to do u-turns at intersections, lmao he doesn’t know the laws, he doesn’t know the area, he cant be trusted to blindly click buttons but so many people are arguing he is perfectly fine to go about his edits I hope DWG see this Do you know the U-turn road rules? | samotor The RAA Magazine<https://samotor.raa.com.au/do-you-know-the-u-turn-road-rules/#:~:text=If%20you%E2%80%99ve%20seen%20a%20fellow%20driver%20doing%20a,you%20can%20perform%20this%20manoeuvre%20at%20this%20location.>

 I would like to report theswavu for this edit Relation History: 13736691 | OpenStreetMap<https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/13736691/history> he deleted a restriction I put there to prevent u-turning from the service road.

I'm not sure I understand what you think the problem is with this edit. The road rules in South Australia allow you to do a u-turn around the end of a median at an intersection provided that there is no sign prohibiting it or traffic lights:

There is no sign or traffic lights at this intersection so you are allowed to do a u-turn, provided that you adhere to the other associated rules:
