What's your nickname for it when you make a U-turn?

All I’d ever heard was “hang a yooey” until a friend of mine called it “whip a tit” and later, one of my cousins called it “flip a bitch.”

Are there more I should know about?:wink:

Do a 180

Uie.

Well, we have two terms in the ivyhouse.

If we have to make a u-turn because that’s the way to get to where you’re going, it’s a u-turn.

If we have to make a u-turn because I drove right past where we needed to turn, it’s a “MyRealName-turn.” :o

I’m boring and say ‘‘Make a U-turn’’

If it’s a required, necessary U-Turn forced by the flow of traffic, it’s a Michigan left.

My favorite is ‘‘flip a bitch,’’ though.

hang a u-ball

I’ve always said, “Bang a yooey.”

Flip around

Me too, ever since Hank said it to Walt on Breaking Bad.

Make a “U-bolt.”

(Got that from my wife–western PA native.)

Dewey Yewie

I say that too–but usually about something else.

A “Ted Heath”?

In the US it would be hang a Louey (L for left).

A ‘Rewinder’…one of my kids said that when they were young. We thought it was hilarious.

“Hang a yooey” for me too. But I am now inspired to make up terms. How about “spank a kitty” or 'pop a southie"?

Chuck a U-ey

In Aus, the generally accepted term is, ‘chuckin’ a yewie’.

In my dialect of Spanish it’s called capucete; it shares the roots of capuz, chapuz or capucha (all meaning “hood”) and of capuzar (“capsize”). If you were already driving das la vuelta de capucete (you make a capucete turn) or haces un capucete (you make/do/shape a capucete); if you were parked sales de capucete (you exit with a capucete).

If someone in the car asks me to make a U Turn, I simply shout with an Italian accent, “U-Turn? U-Turn? Nota my turn so it musta be U-Turn!”
