Can I do a three point turn any where? (possibly caught on camera)

I was in town and was stuck in a massive traffic line so I did a quick three point turn on a main road (there was no oncoming traffic). My question is was I allowed to do this? As it is a busy road with lots of shops (and cameras) and I have only had my licence less than a week. Am i likely to get a fine or anything?

Highway Code says it's OK if done safely unless you break some other regulation to do it (e.g. one-way street, crossing a solid line etc.)

Nah it was not a blind spot. It was on a str8 road and all the other drivers looked shock or gave me a dirty look so I got worried. I think they were just pissed of then that I used my initiative and saved myself from traffic

thanks to everyone for there advise!

According to the highway code, the appropriate response to that is to blast your horn and stick up your middle finger.

Haven't you ever seen taxis do it on main roads <_<

Round here, most of them just do massive U turns, going onto the pavements on both sides of the road while they are at it. :/
