U-Banger

(n) Aus.

The turning of a vehicle around 180 degrees, often upon realising that one is travelling in the incorrect direction. (often following a conjugated form of "chuck").
Similar to "U-ey".

Origin: From the phrase "U-turn", characterised by the motion of the vehicle following a "U" shaped turn.

Having reached a dead end, Sharon chucked a U-Banger to return to the highway.

"Nah, nah, mate. Ya took the wrong turn. Just chuck a U-banger and I'll show you the way".
