Explanation
If you are driving behind a bicyclist who has their left arm extended downward, you should assume that the bicyclist is slowing down or coming to a stop. Slow down, wait to pass the bicyclist until it is safe, and leave plenty of space in case the bicyclist unexpectedly swerves to avoid something on the road or loses control of the bicycle.
