Which indication signal has priority when changing direction at an intersection?
Changing direction
Explanation
To make a change of direction at an intersection, the **hand signal made by the driver** is the one that prevails. This is because, in situations where signals can be confusing or contradictory, the driver's hand signals are clear and direct to communicate turning intentions to other drivers and pedestrians.
- Hand signals are especially useful at intersections where there are no clear signals or when existing signals may be contradictory.
- At a crossing, it is important for drivers to communicate their intentions effectively to avoid confusion and ensure the safety of all road users.
- Hand signals allow drivers to indicate their turning intentions precisely and visibly, which helps coordinate the flow of traffic safely.
Therefore, in situations of changing direction at an intersection, the driver's hand signal is the most reliable and should be the one to follow.
