The vehicle that is stopped at the traffic light wants to turn left. Must it have the left turn indicator on?
Changing direction
Explanation
To turn left at a traffic light, it is **mandatory** to turn on the **left turn signal**. This is because:
- **Turn signals** are essential to notify other drivers that you are going to change direction, whether to the right or left. It is a legal requirement for all motor vehicles, trailers, and semi-trailers.
- Whenever you are going to make a **change of direction**, such as turning left, you must turn on the corresponding turn signal before starting the maneuver.
- The **R.S.M. safety rule** states that you must turn on the turn signal on the side you are going to move towards, in this case, the left.
Therefore, when stopped at a traffic light and wanting to turn left, you must turn on the left turn signal to comply with traffic regulations and ensure safety on the road.
