Hawaii Driver's Manual General Practice Test

When signaling to make a turn or lane change, when should you signal?

Signal only while making the turn or lane change.

Signal every time you intend to make a turn or lane change.

When indicating a turn or lane change, it's essential to signal every time you intend to make such a maneuver. This practice ensures that other drivers and pedestrians are aware of your intentions, which promotes safety on the road. By signaling in advance, you give others time to react appropriately, reducing the chances of accidents.

The other options do not capture the full requirement of proper signaling. For instance, signaling only while making the turn or lane change does not provide any warning to other drivers or pedestrians, which is critical for safe driving. Additionally, the idea that you have the right to make a turn or lane change after signaling for a specific distance may imply that signaling alone is a guarantee for safety, which is misleading. Always signaling every time reinforces good habits and enhances overall traffic safety.

Know that after signaling for 100 feet you have the right to make the turn or lane change.

All of the above are correct.
