SAVVY18 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 The talk of bad driving in the venting thread made me ask this question, so have at it. Also feel free to post your reasons why or why you don't use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 100% of the time. Brian used to be terrible about using them until I nagged him to no end. Now he at least uses them when I am in the car. lol EDIT: I use them because it ticks me off when people around me don't as well as I can't expect them to be mind readers.

kapkomet Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Aren't those just Christmas tree lights or other decorations? I mean, they didn't make them to USE did they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Turning in traffic, always. Changing lanes in some traffic, always. Changing lanes with barely any traffic, rarely. Turning at a 4 way stop sign with no one around, rarely. Basically i use the turn signal "when necessary" for the safety of others and myself. On a side note...some people think a turn signal is their God-given right to change lanes, regardless of where you are located in the next lane over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I always use my turn signal, no matter where I am or how heavy the traffic. Of course, I've only been driving for like a month so that might have something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also feel free to post your reasons why or why you don't use them. anyone that turns right and doesn't use the signal gets the horn and a fist shake from me if i'm behind them.

BridgeportHeather Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I've had my driver's license for 6 1/2 years now and still use my turn signals 100% of the time, even when absolutely no other cars are around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Pretty much all of the time, except for when I'm turnin out of my driveway and street where there's no traffic, and when I drive home from shift work at midnight where there's hardly no traffic.

POTUSChris Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I always do even if it's late at night and no one is around. Honestly, how hard is it to flick a stick up or down?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I dunno about the rest of you but I suspect most of the time it's the same for you as it is for me. It's not even a conscious thing, really. I just automatically do it without thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I always do now because I only have my learners permit which means an adult is always in the car and they nag about everything I do the entire trip. Man, I hated that. But, it's something you gotta do, and once you have your license, you'll be a better driver b/c of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
