Explanation
To make a right turn safely, it is essential to use the **direction indicator light** correctly. This light, which is yellow and blinks intermittently, is used to warn other drivers that you are going to change direction, whether by turning or changing lanes.
- **You must turn on the direction indicator light before starting the maneuver** to alert other road users of your intention to turn.
- **It is important to keep it on throughout the entire maneuver**, that is, until you have completed the turn or change of direction. This ensures that other drivers are informed of your movement until you have finished it.
- Once you have completed the turn, **you must turn off the direction indicator light**. This avoids confusion and ensures that you do not send incorrect signals to other drivers.
Therefore, the correct answer is to keep the light on **until the maneuver is completed**. This ensures that your intention to turn is clear to everyone sharing the road with you.
