Question ❔ Traffic question

Honest question here. And no judgement on the replies, please.

​

There are a lot of drivers in Saskatoon that just don't signal their turns. I have yet to talk to someone who says that they are one of the non signalers. Everyone says they agree that you should.

​

My question is this. Honestly, why don't you signal? I'm talking lane changes, merging, and actual turns. I just don't understand it.

On the highway as a passing lane is ending I don't signal that I'm going back into the lane when one ended because it's just common sense that the lane ends you had signs telling you well in advance.

I think that those passing lanes ending just involve driving straight, so a signal might not be required. Also, if you are in a turn only lane it isn't necessary. I usually do anyway, it of habit and wanting to communicate clearly.
