Show answer
Correct answer
- CUna vez completado el desplazamiento lateral.Once the sideways movement has been completed.
Explanation
In manoeuvres with sideways movement only that movement is signalled, and the signal ends when the vehicle has taken up its new path (Article 109.2.a of the RGC). That is why the indicator is switched off when each sideways movement is completed.
