DDifficulty 3/5

A bus driver indicates with the left indicator their intention to change lane to overtake. When should the indicator be switched off?

Correct answer

When the lane change to the left is complete.

At the end of the leftward lane change, once the bus has adopted its new path in the overtaking lane. The indicator signals the lane change; it should not remain on until the other vehicle is passed or until returning right. Before returning to the right-hand lane, check that this is safe and signal that new lane change with the right indicator.
