I can't stand people who fail to signal. Then act like I should let them over bc I'm a mind reader.

I've lived in many cities and not using turn signals is what I've always associated Baton Rouge with. Hattiesburg was everyone running red lights.

I almost had to fight an old man over this. Old bastard didn't turn on his blinker so I threw my hand in the air. Dude stops in the middle of the road and gets out his car screaming " do you have a problem ". I say "yes, try using your fricking blinker". Then he says get out the car if have a problem. My daughter says daddy please don't so I just drove off. He thought it was no big deal he didn't use his blinker.

He did have that crazy look in his eye. I'm 42 and he looked 55-60. I'm sure the fight would not have lasted long no matter who would of won.

Also, please turn on your lights when it's dark outside.

As long as I am doing 20-30mph faster than traffic on the highway, I don't signal.
In town, it is safer to signal.
Pretty simple really.

Why doesn't anyone use a blinker/signaler/turn indicator anymore?

And I'm not signaling for a turn Bc it's not my problem that you're following too close and might rear end me.
You deserve terrible things to happen to you.

Worse are the fricking assbags with taillights that don't illuminate when braking like a 17 year old girl to make an unsignaled turn.

Seems like the art of using turn signals has gone extinct in these parts.
I don't use the f@ck me signal on I-12 or in Baton Rouge intentionally because all it does is piss me off. I put it on and people go out of their way to prevent me from switching lanes. Yesterday I am in the middle lane on I-12 and I cut my f@ck me signal on to get in the right lane (I forgot where I was at) and the jerk in the right lane sped up and prevented me from getting over for over a quarter of a mile. When I finnaly got over a couple of cars ahead of him he then got in the center lane trying to pass me almost causing a wreck as he attempted to pass me on the f@cking off ramp.
I hate driving I-12 and it just gets worse every year.

At least half the time, I notice the [BF or Asian] offender is texting or at least talking on phone. Other times, she just looks me right in the eye as to say, "I do not give a shite about the social compact." To be fair, it is sometimes a WASP male. Sometimes. Yes, I'm a bigot.

I sure as hell do now. I was in a left turning lane at a stop light and had green to go. Did not put my blinker on to turn and cop freaking stopped me. He came from a parking lot just to give me a 75 dollar ticket.

I think its a New Orleans thing, I feel like i've seen less than 20 blinkers in three years. When I see people and can tell they are getting ready to merge but don't have a blinker on, i cut them off from their exit to try and teach a lesson. It feels good.
