Is the left turn signal operated by pushing up or down?

[CarlosFitz]

The left turn signal is operated by pushing down. For ease of use, the turn signal lever on the steering wheel is designed to be more ergonomic. Therefore, it is determined during the design process that pushing the light control lever downward activates the left turn signal, while pushing it upward activates the right turn signal. Below is some related information about turn signals: The function of turn signals: As signal lights, the primary role of turn signals during daily driving is to alert surrounding vehicles, indicating that the vehicle is about to turn, so other vehicles can take notice and avoid collisions. Whether turning, changing lanes, overtaking, starting, or parking, as long as the vehicle needs to steer away from the original lane, the turn signal should be activated in advance. This is a fundamental principle of safe driving. Precautions for turn signals: In daily driving, the most common situations where drivers tend to overlook turn signals include entering a roundabout, merging from an on-ramp onto the main highway, and parking lots. These are all scenarios where accidents can easily occur due to neglecting to use turn signals.
