If both a visual and audio clue aren't sufficient, people who do this should not be driving. Clearly their situational awareness is lacking.


Nah, Maryland drivers signal left and cut across three lanes of traffic to turn right.

I’ve accidentally left mine on. No one died.

You dad should not be driving if they can't hear it, or see it on his dash. That's seriously alarming.


Meh, like I said, it’s not a big deal.


If deaf people can drive, seems like it’s a non starter to worry about dad

It's sometimes hard to concentrate on turn signals while I'm driving and playing games on my phone while driving.

Found the racist!

“Maryland drivers” in DCUM-speak actually means “black drivers”.


Oh, it's you again. The bad Maryland driver who's a bad Maryland driver because they're a Maryland driver, and refuses to believe it.

I saw three people doing this in the past week. They were all white males. The common denominator though, was that all vehicles had Maryland plates.


I mean, Virginia drivers are obviously the worst. Old granny slowpokes that have nowhere to be. That said I assume we both hate each other as monoliths and this has nothing to with racism, just stateism. And we can all unite in our loathing for dc diplomat plates anyway.

Yes I agree.
And it rarely happens.

I accidentally put too much blinker fluid in last time and am trying to use it up.

Bonus points if I'm coming up on your left, open space to let you over while you chill for >10 seconds, and then get pissy when I shrug and cruise by you.


Who cares?
