Pennsylvania law sections 3333 and 3334 specify that vehicles must be moved or turned only when it is safe to do so, and require proper signaling before turning or changing lanes. The law emphasizes safe movement, proper signaling, and restrictions on signal flashing, especially for disabled or parked vehicles. Turn signals must be used appropriately and turned off immediately after completing the maneuver.
You can only move a stopped or parked vehicle when it is safe to do so, ensuring the movement does not pose a hazard to others.
Signals must be given continuously for at least 100 feet before turning at speeds under 35 mph, and at least 300 feet at speeds over 35 mph, including when entering the traffic stream from a parked position.
No, signals should not be flashed on one side only for disabled or parked vehicles unless necessary for compliance with safety laws.
Turn signals should be turned off immediately after completing the turn or lane change to avoid confusing other drivers.
