65 percent of drivers do not use their turn signals

USE YOUR F-ING TURN SIGNAL. Nothing drives me nuts more than having to sit behind someone I could have went around had they had on their blinker.

But if I keep using it, I might run out.

I'm going to get run over one day on my motorcycle by some clown on a cell phone, eating, screaming at the kids, and making lane changes while not signaling in their SUV.

I hear ya alien, I don't give a %@#* about peoples opinion of Bush, abortion, capital punishment etc. but I do wish they would use their turn signal, I can't read even the simple minded folks and I know they can't read my ruined one either-

this is absolutely one of my biggest pet peeves and one day actually started counting how many times I was behind someone turning who didn't use their signal. I also noticed that most of the time it was a woman driver.

The times I've counted, it was older men. Where I come from, we don't use turn signals because the town is so small, we're all very well acquainted and know where everyone is going. I use my signal though because I like that "tick tock" sound.

that doesn't make sense, how can you "know" where someone is going just because you know everyone in town. I know you, but if I saw you at an intersection I wouldn't think "golly there's Steph, she always turns left". That almost rhymes. That also reminds me of Derek Zoolander who couldn't turn left.

I have said it before, but I'm pretty sure native Kentuckians (which I am most def NOT) are born with the inability to use turn signals. They are also genetically programmed to swerve into adjacent lanes when making turns. RAGE!

On the other hand, don't even get me started on Michigan drivers...

At least Kentuckians can make corners. I hate getting stuck behind ohioains.

Eric, When you live in a town with three streets, you're probably turning the same direction you often travel to get home or to get out of the town.
