Driver Responsibilities for Warning Other Road Users
- Warning Other Road Users: The driver must alert others when necessary for traffic safety.
- Avoid Unnecessary Signals: Drivers should refrain from using excessive or unnecessary warning signals.
- Prohibited Signals: Using the warning device for calling attention (e.g., honking) is not allowed.
Driver Guidelines for Using Warning Signals
- Minimize Use of Signals: The driver should act in a way that avoids the need for acoustic or light signals, if possible. Such signals should only be used when traffic safety requires it.
- When to Use Acoustic Signals: Drivers must use sound signals when:
- Children are not paying attention to traffic near the road.
- Approaching unclear or narrow curves outside urban areas.
- Nighttime Signals: After dark, only light signals should be used. Acoustic signals are permitted only in emergencies.
