You gotta do a secretory vesicle turn (looks like the open one!) where you swerve wildly off the road, circle around, blaze directly across the street at a right angle, then circle back onto the road heading the other direction. No stopping, no entering, and it's technically not a U-turn.

Haven't thought about secretory vesicles in a while, and this is a pretty unique context for them lmao

It's the shape my brain drew as I read those signs. It follows all the rules!
