Traffic Signals & Road MarkingsStandalone practice
Your turn signals have stopped working, and you plan to turn right at the next corner. Which hand-and-arm signal should you give?
Correct answer: Left arm out the window, bent upward at the elbow
Why
Hand signals are necessary when your signal lights do not work. Give the signal in time for drivers behind you to react, at least 100 feet before the turn, and keep your arm still. Check your signal lights often so that you know when they fail.
