Don't worry so much about it, we will all soon have driverless cars, then people can figure out new ways to impart their anger and control issues on others.

Using your turn signal should be second nature. I don't even think about it anymore. If I'm turning or changing lanes, it is a habit to use my signal. Roads would be safer and operate more efficiently if it was like that for everyone.

There is a 4 lane road by my house. 2 lanes head north and 2 lanes head south. Nothing infuriates me more than when I am trying to cross the north lane to turn south from a side road, and a car heading north turns onto the street I am on without using their signal. It may be another minute before I have a gap to make my turn. It's such a small effort needed to put the signal on that my only assumption can be that the person is an a-hole or a moron.

Yeah, but do you think he uses his turn signal to hide from his wife when sending pics of his unit to Paige?

Hmm on one hand I want details.

On the other, I don't.

You should use your blinker for any turn, anywhere. Your attitude screams that you are 100% arsehole.

Drivers Ed. Instructor here. Rule says you should use signals whenever your car changes direction, except on curves.

Do you put your blinker on when you turn into a parking spot?

I do, but mostly because there are lots of kids on my street.

I mean seriously, what is the objection to using the turn signal?

Too much effort?

Does it cost extra?

Do you feel like less of a man?

I've just always wondered.

There are still cars behind you, and, unless the parking lot has the diagonal spots, coming at you on your left. The same circumstances are still there that signaling your turn is beneficial to everyone involved.

Wow. When I saw this, my first thought was that this thread is going to be Exhibit A in the wrongful death trial against you when some teenager dies after plowing into the back of your car in front of your house. The internet is forever, you know.

Also, has anyone mentioned that it is highly unlikely that a G wagon skidded , since you know they have anti lock brakes?

Also, it's highly unlikely that the OP lives in an area frequented by G wagons.

Unfortunately, he does.

He is all but a missing blue checkmark if TD ever made one for verification
