SAPOL says it is targeting the use of indicators as part of its Traffic Thursday campaign.
According to police, you’ve broken the law if you:
– Fail to signal sufficient warning of left change of direction.
– Fail to give five-second signal of left move from stationary position.
– Fail to cancel left signal.
– Fail to signal sufficient warning of right change of direction.
– Fail to give five-second signal of right move from stationary position.
– Fail to cancel right signal.
– Misuse direction indicator.
“None of us has a crystal ball, so it is not just a legal requirement but a courtesy to your fellow motorists to signal your intent,” Superintendent Anthony Fioravanti said.
Traffic Thursday: each month police highlight a road rule that causes the most frustration for drivers.
