I blame the auto makers like GM, Toyota, etc. How they can continue to sell cars that don’t have functioning blinkers astounds me…
Oh my goodness I feel the same way about bikes
Depends where you are for the keep right rule. On the 100 series highways, definitely keep right. City streets like Robie or Connaught, no such thing, just multiple lanes of traffic
do you really expect miracles in today’s world. drivers actually doing the right thing, and gasp, using signal lights, or heavens forbid, manners.
I’d love to see cars created that if you don’t use your turn signal three time successively, the car implodes. Some drivers are just dick-dribble with not a brain cell to spare.
And while you’re at it…PUT DOWN YOUR FUCKING CELL PHONES.
I always use my blinker out of habit, but I can understand why some wouldn’t around here….most drivers around here seem to think that a signal light means “speed up and don’t let the fucker in”…what’s up with that?
we live in a province where noone is accountable for their actions. what it would take for people to get into the proper frame of mind to drive would be monumental. I know people who honestly think they are perfect drivers because they havent crashed at 160km/h…yet they have been in so many fender benders at 50 km/h-ish they just dont get it. my observations of the drivers here is that almost everyone has a broken left arm(cant signal), cannot maneuvre through a double right or left lane turn(always go where ever they want to) and have serious issues with any red coloured signage/lights that tell them they cant just keep going. I nominate the entire province for Canada’s Worst Driver. that show could make a career out of this province’s drivers.
