Explanation
Signaling lets other drivers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians know your intentions and gives them time to adjust their speed or position. Signal every time you change direction, even if there are no other vehicles around. Signal at least 100 feet (approximately 4 seconds) before you turn so other drivers will have time to react.
