    Why would you make a U-turn in a driveway? Driveways are generally narrower than roads.

    Surely it’d be a Y-turn.

      Depends but usually because the road itself is not wide enough or you don’t want to impede traffic.

      The last time I did this it was on a road with culverts on either side so the safest way to U Turn was in someone’s driveway.

        I think they were just pointing out that isn’t a U turn. They called it a Y turn, many people I know would call it a 3 point turn. They were being pedantic for comic relief but it didn’t go over as well as expected.
