The cows don’t need to see my signals on the way to work.(Springville) When I am in traffic I use them though. ---

I use my turning signals all the time. Even switching lanes. It bothers the hell out of me when people don’t use them. I just get super pissed. They’re there for a reason, to let other people know what the fuck you’re doing. Ugh. ---

What bothers me more is when people use their directionals 1 second before they’re turning… or even while they’re in mid turn. What the fuck is the point of that? ---

o yeah and when doing high-speed runs i make exceptions because: 1. im prob moving too fast for people to even notice 2. flicking on the blinker is one more thing to disctract me from going fast ---

it depends if the situation warrents it or not… when changing lanes… I dont always use them… same goes for parking lots (or if I have nobody to signal to)… ---

Every single moment I am driving. Even if it is in the absolute middle of nowhere and there isn’t another car within a 3 mile radius. It’s a habit, and a habit I am happy of. ---

100% always use them, its the law and its a courtesy factor. Cant stand people that dont, in my book it makes them a terrble driver. ---

oh yeah, I use them on curves sometimes. haha but it could be a good thing for people a mile behind you on a poorly lit/unlit curvy road. ---

I use mine. Only when there is absolutely no one else on the road do I not use them. ---

Old thread but, new story. So I am driving down a country road and I come up to a T intersection and this dick in a Honda comes flying up on my ass. I look left and right then turn right. As I am turning the guy in the Honda behind is waving his arms and yelling. I stop and back up to see what this yahoo is yelling about. He starts yelling again and I said I can’t hear you over the barking dogs in your car.😃 Then he says, “Does that car have turn signals”? I of course said, “No”. He yells, “Use your fucking turn signals”! At this point my wife is scared and yelling at me to leave. The guy started driving away and I yelled/asked, “Were you going to pass me in the intersection or something”? He flipped me off and drove away. OK I didn’t have my signal on but, NO MATTER WHAT, HE MUST YIELD TO ME BECAUSE HE WAS BEHIND ME. Maybe his bf wouldn’t put out so he was in a bad mood. This is the kicker - HE DIDN’T SIGNAL EITHER!!!:biglaugh: Oh and a little advice; Don’t cause trouble when you JUST pulled out of your driveway.😃 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-often-do-you-use-your-turn-signals/7458.md?page=2)
