Passenger Turning Path - 90°
The 90° turning path of a passenger vehicle measures the minimum possible turning radius needed when designing parking, loading, and drop-off spaces.
Measuring the inner and outer radii of the 90° turn, a minimum inner radius of 11’6” (3.5 m) and minimum outer radius of 19’2” (5.85 m) should be provided. Though the turning path requires a width of only 7’6” (2.3 m), additional clearances should be provided whenever possible to accommodate a larger variety of car sizes and driver abilities.
