If a vehicle driver extends their left arm horizontally with the palm facing down, what maneuver are they signaling?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish hand signals that substitute or reinforce light indicators. The left arm extended horizontally with the palm facing down unequivocally indicates the intention to move or turn to the left. To distinguish other signals: Right turn: The driver would place their left arm bent upwards at a right angle ('L' shape). Reversing: The driver would extend their arm horizontally but with the palm facing backward.
