Situation | Signaling Tips |
---|---|
100 feet before turning | Perfect! You’re a signaling superstar. |
Shifting lanes | Mirror-check, shoulder-glance, blind spot peek, and signal – it’s the four-step dance of the road. |
Freeway lane-switching | Give ’em 5 seconds of blinker action before making your move. |
Cozying up to the curb or bidding it adieu | Signal, my friend, signal! |
No other cars around | Psh, signal anyway. Make it a habit; who knows when it’ll save your bacon? |
Turning after an intersection | Delay that signal game, or others might get confused and dart out in front of you. Wait till you’re nearly through, then let that signal shine! |
