Question 4169

A motorcycle rider who is about to turn left must signal the maneuver with the left arm. How should they do it?

  1. With the left arm pointing downward and the palm of the hand facing backward.
  2. With the left arm extended horizontally and the palm of the hand facing upward.
  3. With the left arm extended horizontally and the palm of the hand facing downward.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: With the left arm extended horizontally and the palm of the hand facing downward.

To signal a left turn with your left arm, extend it horizontally with your palm facing down, like the motorcycle rider in the image. Neither of the other two positions signals a turn.
