Signalling
Announcing Changes of Direction
Any change of direction must be communicated in advance using the direction indicator or clear hand signals.
The driver must announce all direction changes, including right turns. Cyclists who swing out to overtake another cyclist must also indicate their intention.
Using Direction Indicators
The direction indicator must be activated when:
- Changing lanes
- Turning
- Overtaking
- Inserting a vehicle into traffic and stopping at the side of the road
Entering and Exiting Traffic Circles
- The driver does not need to signal when entering a traffic circle or when driving within it (if no lane change occurs). However, leaving the circle must be indicated.
Special Situations
- If the driver needs to pull out to the opposite side to turn right due to the size of the vehicle or local conditions, they must signal this intention (first turn left, then right).
- The direction indicator should also be activated when following a main road that changes direction.
Stopping Signals
- Signaling must stop immediately after completing the turn. Cyclists may stop signaling during the turn.
