Correct answer

  • Bel propósito de inmovilizar su vehículo o frenar su marcha de modo considerable.the intention to bring the vehicle to a standstill or to slow down considerably.
Explanation

Drivers must signal their manoeuvres, whether or not they involve a sideways movement, and not only when braking, so the answers 'only manoeuvres without a sideways movement' and 'only the intention to brake' are wrong. Drivers are obliged to signal with visual signals the intention to bring the vehicle to a standstill or to slow down considerably. We will do this by repeatedly using the brake lights or by moving the arm up and down with short, quick movements.
