Sharing the roadQuestion 264 of 318
When can a cyclist turn without a hand signal?

- When the signal would put the cyclist’s safety at risk.
- When no vehicle follows the cyclist.
- When the cyclist turns at an intersection with lights.
Show answer
Correct answer: When the signal would put the cyclist’s safety at risk.
A cyclist must signal a turn with an arm. The cyclist does not have to do it when the signal would endanger his or her safety. Watch for this at intersections.
