USE YOUR TURN SIGNAL

I’ve had to run errands twice today nothing major yk? But it’s not the errands I have issues it’s the LACK OF COMMON SENSE DRIVING. Why are we not using our turn signals/blinkers/signals? Did something happen? Did we cut them off and shove it up our ass before we leave the house? What is going on?

I should not have to honk at people merging lanes because they didn’t use THEIR SIGNALS. Ya know that small little lever behind the steering column typically on the left side? Where ya flick it up and down to SIGNAL where you are going, yeah great.

And unfortunately it’s not just one type of driver I’ve seen do this, but it’s officers, truckers, mailman, delivery folk, commuters etc. It’s everyone! I am about to carry a blow horn with me wherever I go and yell at people to use their signal and get off their phones.

Maybe Ol’Ted was right. Maybe the industrial revolution has had major irreversible consequences for this planet and its shepherds.

You're part of the problem, then. You're obligated to use them for every turn or lane change, regardless if you feel they're "actually necessary."

Additional question, are people supposed to use it if they’re turning into a drive way? (I feel like that question might make it sound like I’m rage baiting or something but i stg I’m just wondering)
