I've seen that comment before, and I don't understand it.

I turn right (a legal turn) ... ride up the road a little ways (nothing wrong with that) ... then, when there's no traffic, I pull the U-turn (nothing wrong with that either). If there are no signs up prohibiting U-turns, vehicles of all sorts can pull U-turns. But if there's any doubt, I just make it look like I'm pulling into a driveway, or loop through a parking lot.

It may take a few minutes, but often that's less time than waiting in line, in the left turn lane, to turn left ... and I don't see anything illegal there. Why would a police officer pull me over???



(Incidentally ... as an aside ... there's a lot to be said for roundabouts! )
