Give a Signal

For all of you who give appropriate and polite signals when you’re about to change lanes or turn: Thank you. You are wonderful human beings with an understanding of what it means to be a part of civilization.

For any of you who just refuse to give signals, and just zip in and out of lanes or make turns unannounced: ^&%# you. You are idiots with no right to share the road or civilization.

It astonishes me how something so incredibly easy, nigh effortless, can apparently be so beyond the ability of so many drivers. It’s just a flick of the wrist.

Giving a driving signal is just common courtesy. Not only does it help keep everyone safe on the roads, it shows basic respect for fellow drivers. Every time I see a driver change lanes without a signal, or turn in an intersection without a signal, I see someone who is just too self absorbed to be allowed a driver’s license.

I wish there was some way of tagging a driver’s car with some kind of “I’m a jackass!” sign when they maneuver without giving a signal.

Sorry, but I’m a little worked up over this issue. I encountered three of these idiots today on my drive home. Sometimes it’s a wonder the majority of us manage to actually make it home safe, what with all the *$^%*s on the road.
