For the first one, I just hate these people. I mean really, can you not be that bothered to move your hand two inches to turn on your turn signal? It's a common courtesy to the person behind you, to the person by you when you're changing lanes, and to the people wanting to turn onto the street. But those people are only really a minor annoyance, the ones that really piss me off are the people that turn on their turn signal as they're turn. The above people are rude but the people that turn their turn signal on as they're turning are just fucking stupid. They know what a turn signal is, they know they're supposed to use it, they just don't realize what it's for really. That pisses me off. Every person I see turning and then turning on their turn signal I just want to give the finger to but I really don't want to get shot. That would be a bad thing and probably piss me off too. |
I don't use my turn signals always when I'm weaving though traffic. However, that's only because it screams, "I'm going faster than everyone else!" I generally don't go past 10 over, about as fast as I can go without being pulled. Still, I'm forced to weave day in and day out. When I'm turning off a road, though, I always use it and turn it on with an amount of time proportionate to the turn. I hate people who turn it on late as they go to turn in rush hour traffic and I'm waiting to turn onto their street. I totally could have gone, but no, now I have to wait another half hour for the next opening in traffic.
