When do you use your turn signals?

On a recent trip to NE Ohio, I noticed that an overwhelming majority of the drivers there did not use their turn signals, ever. So, that got me to thinking; when do you use your turn signals?

 

you've got to be joking

 

Mostly when turning. And changing lanes. And I don't think he's joking.

 

Whenever I feel like it. Sometimes IDGAF and won't signal. If someone is obviously waiting for me to turn before they pull out in front of me, I will signal for them as a courtesy. It all depends.












I put way to much effort into this...

 

Every single time you turn. It should be so habitual, that you never even think about it, it just happens.

If not, you're a dick, plain and simple.

 

Generation gap???

 

well paint me a penis then! i abstain from habitual turn signals

 

Hmm, I usually use my turn signals for when I'm turning...

 

I dont use my blinker is parking lots, or turning in to or out of my driveway, but the rest of the time I do.

More like demographics I bet. It seems like more midwesterners don't signal than other parts of the country I've been to.

 

When im the only one on the road

 

There's a road by my place that is a left turn only, the road doesn't go any other way. I've gotten so used to using my signal that I occasionally see the turn and put on my signal without evening thinking

 

Not so sure. Ever driven I'm a major east coast city. Lol!

I believe it may be generational
Seems younger folks are less disciplined and respectful toward others.

I use them all the time , as DTRL

 

your right, you must drive otr too.

 

So if you don't signal I guess that is some kinda display of dominance or something I don't get it...maybe compensating? I use em cause I want to keep traffic moving and me moving through it just makes sense to me.

 

if you dont use your turn signals i automatically assume you to be the scum of the earth. especially when im trying to turn out of somewhere and wait as you turn into the place im exiting.

 

Where's the when do you wear your seatbelt thread?



I do have a good no turn signal story about when I almost got ran over, but I don't feel like typing it.
