When waiting to emerge from a junction, you may safely pull out if an oncoming motorcyclist is flashing their left indicator.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False
The statement is false. In the UK Highway Code and DVSA guidance, drivers waiting at junctions are advised not to rely solely on an oncoming motorcyclist's indicator, as indicators on motorcycles often do not self-cancel and may have been left on inadvertently.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the reliability of a motorcycle's active directional indicator at a junction.
Recognise that many motorcycles do not have self-cancelling indicators.
Riders must manually switch off their indicators, meaning signals are sometimes left flashing by mistake.
2
Determine the safe course of action for a driver emerging from a minor road.
Wait until the motorcycle has actually slowed down and committed to the turn before emerging.
Emerging based solely on a flashing signal creates a severe collision hazard if the rider continues straight ahead.
