Uhh, well, I use my blinkers to change lanes because it's the law, and I would prefer not to get a ticket. Sucks that people following the laws of the road annoys you :p I agree the leaving the blinker on thing is annoying though. Can't people hear the annoying "click clack click clack" of their blinker?

Even then all you have to do is glance down at your speedometer or tacometer once to see the light blinking :p

I use my blinker when I am actually turning, not when my car is moving side to side without turning the wheels (which is what deactivates the blinker .. the turning of your wheels).

I never use my blinkers to change lanes, 9 times out of 10 doing that .. will result in you left in the lane you are in .. because the asshole behind you will speed up to keep you from getting in front of them. Cops don't even use blinkers to change lanes.

Just because it's a "law" doesn't mean it's a smart one. You speed don't you? That's against the law too.

people who dont use blinkers in houston are in for a rude awakening. I guess ti depends on what part of the country you are in, but here you will get honked at and flipped the bird...the hazzard of not using one is what if someone 2 lanes over doesnt use one either and yall both try and get into the same lane? thats scary!

I find it very easy to tell when someone is about to change lanes.

#1 their head/face will turn to which ever lane they are looking to head into,
#2. generally their will either speed up a few mph or slow down (depending on traffic),
#3. Their car will also move closer to the side in which they are about to try and go, and/or
#4. I can generally look at the traffic around me and the cars around me and tell that they are gonna want over eventually .. so I keep an eye on them.

I personally don't need to look 12" down at an annoying, little, flashing, red light to tell that.

Maybe people in Houston need to pay more attention to the driving conditions going on around them .. and quit being so rude to everyone. And, blinkers are not for "permission" they are simply to alert someone of your intentions. That shit kicker truck doens't have to let you over simply because you use your blinker.

that's true...but aint nothin we can do about them being assholes but be one back to them. You have to drive very aggressively here or just not drive on the freeways at all. It sucks, but that's how it is here with all the huge trucks everywhere.

That's an awful lot of assumptions to make. One of these days you are going to get side swiped from someone changing lanes and you are going to wish they had used their blinker.

For that matter, I find it extremely rude and inconsiderate of other drivers when they don't use a blinker to let me know their intentions.

You know what annoys me? When I can't watch a live playoff game because someone just HASSSS to watch American's Next Top Idol Model Dancing Queen, that they have recorded and could watch at any time.

I hate when people do that with any show. Either park your ass on the couch and watch the tv or lose the remote. It's that simple. You can't have it both ways. Not fair to simply walk through the room randomly and call that as "watching it".

My dad does this ALL the time.

Selling your tables? Wut tha fuk?

My Technics SL-1210M5G turntables. We need the cash for this wedding/honeymoon, as much as I don't want to sell them. It's the thing of most value we own that I am the least likely to be terribly upset about getting rid of.
