Question 5358
The driver of this moped signals a turn with the right turn signal while also extending the left arm horizontally. Which signal prevails?
- The one made with the arm over the light signal.
- The light signal, since signaling with the arm is not regulation-compliant.
- The light signal over the one made with the arm.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The one made with the arm over the light signal.
The arm signal takes precedence. A correctly made arm signal that others can see overrides any conflicting vehicle light signal. In the image, the moped has its right turn signal on, but its rider is extending their left arm horizontally, so they are going to the left.
