CHAPTER 18. The code of the city of Charlottesville,
Virginia, 1945 : | ||
Sec. 31. Signals on starting, stopping or turning.
(a) Every driver who intends to start, stop or turn or partly
turn from a direct line, shall first see that such movement can be
made in safety and whenever the operation of any other vehicle
may be affected by such movement shall give a signal as required
in this section plainly visible to the driver of such other vehicle of
his intention to make such movement.
(b) The signal herein required shall be given by means of the
hand and arm, or by some mechanical or electrical device approved
by the commissioner.
Whenever the signal is given by means of the hand and arm,
the driver shall indicate his intention to start, stop or turn or partly
turn by extending the hand and arm from and beyond the left
side of the vehicle, in the manner following:
(c) For left turn, or to pull to the left, the arm shall be extended
in a horizontal position straight from and level with the
shoulder.
(d) For right turn, or to pull to the right, the arm shall be extended
upward.
(e) For slowing down or to stop, the arm shall be extended
downward.
(f) Such signals shall be given continuously for a distance of
at least fifty feet before slowing down, stopping, turning, partly
turning, or materially altering the course of the vehicle.
(g) Drivers having once given a hand, electrical or mechanical
device signal must continue the course thus indicated unless they
alter the original signal and take care that drivers of vehicles and
pedestrians have seen and are aware of the change.
