When you are turning left, you must signal ______ before you make the turn.

  1. 5 seconds

  2. 10 seconds

  3. 15 seconds

  4. 20 seconds

The correct answer is: 10 seconds

When you are turning left, you must signal 10 seconds before you make the turn. This is the standard amount of time recommended for signaling a turn. Signaling too early (e.g. 15 or 20 seconds) can confuse other drivers and signaling too late (e.g. 5 seconds) does not give enough warning. Therefore, 10 seconds before making the turn is the most appropriate and safe amount of time to signal when turning left.
