DPPD: Transportation Code Calls for Timely Signal Use: Avoid Late Turns on the Road.

A lot of drivers turn on their turn signals too late, before turning. Transportation Code says to use your turn signal, 100 ft. prior to turn. Here is a tip: If you are preparing to turn, remember to activate your turn signal first, then brake to turn. This will give the drivers behind you sufficient time to slow down and avoid a collision.
