Correct answer

  • CSí, cuando la señal sea perceptible para los demás usuarios.Yes, when the signal can be seen by other road users.
Explanation

Whenever we want to signal our intention to make a manoeuvre, as an exception we may use audible signals and arm signals to warn other road users, as long as they can perceive them. Arm signals take precedence over audible and light signals and cancel any other contradictory visual signal.
