In case of a reversing light failure or if the vehicle lacks one, how should the driver signal the manoeuvre with their arm?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

When light signals are not working or the vehicle lacks them, it is mandatory to signal manoeuvres with the arm. To indicate reversing, the driver must extend their arm horizontally with the palm of the hand facing backward. It is crucial not to confuse this signal with others: moving the arm up and down indicates slowing down considerably, and bending the arm upwards indicates a right turn.
