Question 7227
When a heavy vehicle cannot keep fully to the right edge of the roadway, how will its driver indicate that it can be passed safely?
- By moving the arm from back to front horizontally with the back of the hand facing backward.
- By moving the arm repeatedly up and down with the palm of the hand facing down.
- By turning on the left turn signal.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: By moving the arm from back to front horizontally with the back of the hand facing backward.
The driver extends an arm horizontally, with the back of the hand facing backward, and moves it from back to front several times, like the truck driver in the image. If using the arm is inconvenient, the driver turns on the right turn signal. Moving the arm up and down signals that the driver is going to brake or stop.
