Under what conditions are the driver's hand signals considered valid?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

For hand signals to be valid, the fundamental rule is that they must be clearly visible to other road users. These signals are a legitimate alternative to light indicators (and take priority over them in case of contradiction), but they lose their validity if they cannot be perceived correctly. Therefore, they are not restricted to urban areas or daytime, provided that visibility is guaranteed.
