The confusion doesn't relate to not understanding which side of the road to drive on or not knowing the road rules, but rather that in the days prior to widespread fitment of indicators and large, bright brakelights, the driver of a vehicle was required to give a handsignal when turning right or braking. If the vehicle was LHD, the warning was there for following vehicles to not look for a hand when the vehicle was slowing/stopping or when turning right.
