Explanation
To minimize the risk of collisions, effective communication with fellow drivers is important. Always warn other drivers when you are going to change direction or slow down.

Signaling ahead of maneuvers such as changing lanes, turning, merging, or parking allows surrounding drivers to anticipate and react accordingly.
