Driving Test Tip: Decoding Police Whistle Signals for Road Safety

Madrid, Spain – A recent online video from the "Teórico Aprobado con Javi" channel, an extension of the Centrovial driving school, offers a crucial tip for aspiring drivers: how to correctly interpret police whistle signals. The instructor clarifies the meanings of two distinct whistle patterns often encountered in driving theory exams. According to the explanation, a series of short, frequent whistle blasts from a traffic officer signals that vehicles must come to a halt. Conversely, a single, prolonged whistle indicates that traffic flow can be resumed. The video's instructor provides a simple mnemonic to help students remember: "toque corto te cortas" (short whistle, you stop) and "toque largo te largas" (long whistle, you go). This clarification aims to prevent confusion and improve success rates for those preparing for their driving license tests.
