Question 1754 · Truck theory test
When should signals (for example, with indicators) be given to other road users?
Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
Clearly and in good time to let other road users know what you intend to do.
Official explanation
Giving signals is a way of telling other road users what you intend to do. So, you should signal properly before moving off, turning right or left, changing lanes, overtaking, slowing down, or stopping. Signal clearly and in good time, and keep in mind that giving a signal does not give you the right of way.
