Why don't people use their turn signal while driving

[laurindat]

Yeah I hate when they don't signal too. It makes it safer for those around you to know what you're doing!! Though sometimes, it might just be because they are in a rush to get somewhere and can't bother with signaling, but then again, I still signal when I'm in a rush only because it's like a muscle reflex after doing it so much.

Not using a turn signal is what irritates me most about other drivers. Usually if I honk the horn at someone for not using them-I get flipped off. Go figure.

I don't understand why people don't use their turn signal as well. I just know that I use them myself and for the safety of others.

It's a good thing to practice defensive driving always.  Here in South Florida, it's a survival tactic.

I get frustrated to by this but my car has electrical problems and sometimes the signal does not work so i start to slow down early or i put on my hazards but this is about 10% of the time. I have gotten the blinker fixed a lot of times but still stops working so i am just writing this to say this can be a reason i dont think it is the reason most of the time though

This is a pet peeve of mine, and I also often wonder if they are optional equipment on some cars these days.

[inertia4]

Mainly because they are morons. I encounter that same thing myself living in the city. It is dangerous.

They feel to important to use it.

this is a great question people get mad when you about hit them but they never signaled the turn so you know where they are going.  The roads would be alot safer if everyone used there turn signals as that is what they are there for.

[Horatio24]

They don't use it because they are idiots.  They put themselves and others at Risk for an accident

[tzs]

Because they either think that they are above the laws, or they just see it as a waste of time. Of course, when they crash and splatter someone's innocent brains on the highway, then it becomes most important! Go figure!

They are lazy.  Until they get into an accident, then they'll learn their lesson.

[sshryer]

Sometimes I think it is laziness or carelessness, but I wonder if it may be that a lot of people think the "rules" don't apply to them...  just guessing.

[ernica96]

i dont drive but it does concern me when i'm attempting to cross the street and trying my best to not get hit by a car. most of the times cars do use their turn signals but then some people are just really lazy.

I get so frustrated as well when people don't use their signals and cut me off!  . It bothers me how people like that are driving in the streets. Most of them have gotten their driver's license so why can't they drive like they did to receive it? They are hazards to the road. It is pretty annoying to see them not being courteous.
