How is the stopping manoeuvre indicated if it cannot be signalled with the brake lights?
Human factor: Physical factors
To signal the stopping maneuver without brake lights, the arm should be moved up and down with short and quick movements, as this signal clearly and effectively communicates the intention to stop.
Explanation
To warn of a **stopping maneuver** when brake lights cannot be used, a hand signal must be used. The correct way to do this is by **moving the arm up and down with short and quick movements**. This signal is important to communicate to other drivers that the vehicle is going to stop, especially if the brake lights are not working.
The brake lights, which are bright red and located at the rear of the vehicle, are the main method to indicate that you are braking. However, if these lights are not working, the hand signal is a necessary alternative to ensure safety on the road.
