Explanation
You are legally required to signal at least 100 feet before making a turn or lane change. Signaling is required by law and alerts other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians of your intentions, giving them time to react. Failing to signal properly increases the risk of collisions and may result in traffic citations. Make signaling a habit every time you drive, even if you don’t see other vehicles nearby.
