When should you signal before making a turn?

  1. After turning

  2. When it is not required

  3. When no one is near

  4. Before turning

The correct answer is: Before turning

While signaling after turning may still communicate your intention to other drivers, it is not the recommended timing and can cause confusion for other drivers. Signaling when it is not required may also give the wrong signal to other drivers, indicating that you are turning when you do not intend to do so. Signaling when no one is near may also give the wrong signal to other drivers and can lead to accidents. Therefore, the best and safest option is to always signal before making a turn. By signaling before turning, you are giving other drivers ample time to react and adjust their driving accordingly. This helps to maintain traffic flow and prevent accidents.
