As a general rule, how should other road users be warned of the intention to carry out a manoeuvre?
Maneuvers – General Rules
Explanation
To warn other users of the intention to perform a maneuver, it is essential to **signal with lights**. These signals are made using the vehicle's lights, which must remain on throughout the maneuver and be turned off upon completion. This ensures that other drivers are informed of your movements and can react appropriately.
Although it is also possible to use hand signals, light signals are more common and effective, as they are more visible and understandable to all drivers, especially in low visibility conditions or at greater distances. Furthermore, light signals are a standard form of communication in driving, which facilitates understanding and safety on the road.
Therefore, using **light signals** is the most appropriate and safe way to warn other users of the intention to perform a maneuver.
