When did using turn signals become an option rather than a regulation?

Question

I drive quite a bit for work and am sick to death of people not following the rules of the road and this particular on really gets to me. Does it get to you too?

Answer 1

answere me this? why does it make you so mad; Is there any chance that you do something that bothers others;

Answer 2

When people are to lazy to flip the switch to turn them on!

Answer 3

yh i find this very annoying its either no signals or permanent signaling 4 half amile til they realise they left it on i dont no which ones more annoying i think if the police catch them they should make them do there test again and if they get caught again if they r lucky enough 2 pass they should b banned 4 life  

Answer 4

Yeah. I hate when people don't use their blinkers. Almost no one in New Mexico uses them, or they leave them on permanently, or they use their blinker to go the oppisite direction. The only problem is when you do use your blinker here, you better change lanes quickly or people will speed up just so you can't get over. We have the worst drivers here and every one that I have met from out of state agrees.

Answer 5

YES: BUT YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THEY CAN ALSO USE THERE ARMS TO SIGNAL.

Answer 6

While many people have to learn the rules of the road to get & keep a driver license, it is taught in the schools that the only reason to learn something is to pass the test.  Once you passed the test & got your driver license you may forget everything.

Many people today learn the rules of the road by the consensus, or peer pressure of seeing what other people do, and get away with.
