Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
You plan to turn right into a driveway on a quiet street, and a car is following you. When must your turn signal come on?
A plans a right turn into a narrow driveway on a two-lane street. B follows A, and the approach distance has no number or selected signal timing in the question image.
Correct answer: At least 100 feet before you reach the driveway.
Why
An early signal tells the driver behind you why you are slowing, which helps prevent rear-end crashes. Move into the proper lane as you signal, and plan turns earlier on faster roads. After the turn, make sure the signal cancels, because a signal left on can mislead other drivers.
