Of all the crazy stuff that happens on the road, this ranks toward the bottom of my concerns.

Exactly this. I use a turn signal when I can, but often that just results in other drivers speeding up so I can't switch lanes.

Because we don't have a ton of time to make our move. It's not like ok, I'm going to change lanes later. I will initiate the lane change signal then relax.

Pretty sure it would be federally prohibited in this country if it lacked turn signals.

And we don’t care, Barbara

We just want some warning when you heave your Range Rover across 3 lanes of beltway at the last second. That River Road exit comes up sooooo fast.

I live in California and notice how many people don't use their turn signals. If I drove here, it would drive me nuts.

I agree. I wish people would use turn signals when they are zig-zagging on the major highways.

If someone is not paying attention (AKA hanging out in the left lane) then I figure it won’t matter if I use my signal or not.

The law would disagree. and we can see you turn, so we know where you're going, we're just asking for you to give us a little notice.

It seems that more cars DON'T use a turn signal than do. It makes you a safer and better driver to use it, so why are you one of the people who don't?
