Unfortunately they're not. So when you make a sudden turn or stop with out signalling, you run the risk of an accident. Protect your car and yourself by learning the correct, legal signals and using them properly. In this way you tell other drivers what you are going to do before you do it. Remember—hand signals are more important today because there are more cars than ever on the road. Don’t take a chance—make hand signalling a habit.
