Explanation
Signaling while turning or changing lanes gives other drivers on the road an opportunity to react to your intended move. This makes the roads safer for all users. Signaling is not only necessary when there are other vehicles around but also when there are no other vehicles visible to the driver. It is a good habit for drivers to signal every time they change direction, including before beginning to pass another vehicle and before completing the pass.
