That blinking red light on the back of my car...
That is my TURN SIGNAL. It means that I want to either merge into that lane, or I want to make a hard turn onto another street. It does not mean speed up as quick as you can so you can cordon off the space I had to merge, and cut me off.

:banghead:

Please, people, learn how to use the turn signal, there is a knob that is on the left hand side of your steering column that controls the signals...

:banghead:

Sometimes I hate people.

2. I have found a truism
More expensive the car, less likely for the occupant to know how to use their signals.

Time and again it has proven to be true.

As for those refusing to yield, fuck em I am coming over. :-)

7. You're still kinda new here, so maybe no one's told you:
In Kollyforniya, turn signals are illegal.
