Question 7124
If a vehicle has its right turn signal on, but the driver signals with their arm that they are going to turn left, which signal prevails?
- The light signal.
- The one made with the arm.
- It depends on the traffic.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The one made with the arm.
The arm signal takes precedence. A correctly made arm signal that others can see overrides any light that signals the opposite, regardless of traffic conditions. In the image, the white passenger car has its right turn signal on, but the driver extends their left arm horizontally, so they are going to turn left.
