New South Wales, U-Turns at signallised intersections.

To quell an argument (ahem, discussion) I'm having with some associates, I 
would like to know if anyone knows of any real legally valid do***ents
that 
state that U-Turns are allowed at signalised intersections within New
South Wales.


  So far, I'm aware of the Australian Road Rules (which the RTA has
adopted) 
(http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/rulesregulations/downloads/roadraustr_dl1.html)
Individual chapters, or, the entire kit and caboodle can be downloaded
here.

  ...which state that they ARE allowed where signed so, however, there is
an 
RTA Technical Directive (99/23) that upheld the old existing no U-Turn at 
signalised intersections past their adoption of the ARR.

(http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/doingbusinesswithus/guidelines/do***entregister/tdlist92to2000.html)
Shows the list, and 99/23 was introduced in October 1999, and not marked
as 
superseded (yet?).  There is a link at the bottom to the PDF do***ent if
you like.

  At this stage, I'm completely convinced (with do***ents to show it) that
I'm 
right, and everyone else is wrong (with nothing more than anecdotal
evidence). 
  My mates are still not convinced of the errors of their ways, and appear
to 
still need some more "encouragement".


  Now, before you try (because all my associates already have), I *DON'T*
want 
to know about your cousins next door neighbour who used to know a guy
who's ex 
girlfriend said she had passed a "U-Turn allowed" at some light
intersection 
sign somewhere up north, a bit up the no-mans road of where that old gum
tree 
with the initials "CS" carved in it used to be.
  No, that's not going to work for me.

  Also, I'm not interested in how one council in the middle of nowhere has

gone contrary to RTA rulings and posted up their own signs.  I am well
aware 
this DOES happen, but I'm not interested in what one hick town does to
make up 
it's own rules:

  I want legally enforceable do***ents.  Or something from the RTA at
least...
