If you turn or change lanes without signaling, you will be at a much higher risk of getting into an accident because other drivers around you were still operating under the assumption that you were going to continue forward in the same lane and they will not be ready to react. Even if you do not have other drivers around you and you fail to properly use your turn signals when changing lanes or turning, it is a very easy way to get pulled over and get a costly ticket. So, be sure you always use your turn signals when legally required. <\/p>\n<p>In order to properly use your turn signals to signify that you are turning or changing lanes you must put your signal on at least a hundred feet before you turn or move lanes. You also must remember to shut your signal off once you are done turning or changing lanes. Always remember to check your blind spot prior to changing lanes.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"when-and-how-to-use-your-hazard-lights\">When and how to use your hazard lights<\/h2>\n<p>Your hazard lights are another story. Most people know how to use their turn signals properly and do but most are unsure of how and when to use their hazard lights. Believe it or not, proper and legal use of your car\u2019s hazard lights only includes when you are pulled over or parked somewhere. Driving with your hazards on is technically not legal and doing so can get you a ticket. Your hazards can also not be used to signify you \u201cwill be right back\u201d if you are double parked or parked in a loading zone. <\/p>\n<p>Typical legal and proper use of your hazard lights will include situations such as when you are pulled over on the side of the road changing a tire or when your car breaks down if you are in the middle of the street or road.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Your turn signals and hazard lights are critical to your safety and other motorist\u2019s safety when you are driving. Your turn signals allow other drivers know that you are about to change lanes or turn as well as in which direction that you are going to do so. Your hazard lights should never be used when your vehicle is in motion and only in emergency and\/or low visibility conditions. Even if you are not driving near anyone else and you fail to use your signals or do not do so correctly, you can still be pulled over and ticketed.
