With what type of signals can you warn of an overtaking manoeuvre within built-up areas?
Overtaking
Explanation
To warn of an **overtaking within a built-up area**, **light signals** must be used. This is because **acoustic signals**, such as using the horn, are restricted in urban areas. They are only allowed in specific situations, such as avoiding an accident or on roads outside built-up areas to warn of an overtaking. Therefore, within a built-up area, acoustic signals are neither appropriate nor permitted to warn of an overtaking.
**Light signals** are the correct and permitted option to communicate the intention to overtake in urban areas. These signals are effective in alerting other drivers without causing unnecessary disturbances in the urban environment.
