Rensh Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Just a note to all you people out there who don't understand the indicating process... When wishing to change lanes you should INDICATE FIRST and then pull across when safe do so. Indicators are not to be used AFTER you have already started moving across lanes and cutting someone up! I don't know about anyone else but this seems to be happening more and more frequently to me and then when I beep my horn I get sworn at as if I'm in the wrong. Pathetic!....Rant over!

Jeffrey Shaw Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Next rant: indicators at roundabouts. Once entering/on roundabout, signal: a. LEFT if you're taking first/next exit; b. nothing if you're going straight on (i.e. signal left only once you're passing last exit before yours); or c. RIGHT if you'll be taking an exit more than 180 degrees around it (i.e. cancel this signal once you're 180 degrees from your exit; and signal left only once you're passing last exit before yours). AND observe lane discipline too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettyBooHoo! Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I don't think all cars have indicators, especially really expensive ones, that could be the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rensh Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yes that may be it BettyBooHoo! - I could kind of get on with it if they acknowledged it in some way e.g quick flash of the hazards to say sorry, Hand up in the mirror or out of the window but when they swear at you and make out like your in the wrong thats the bit I hate!

AND observe lane discipline too. Isn't it just so obvious to those of us who do understand and follow those rules. Easy to do, costs nothing, and keeps everyone around in the picture. So for those of you who don't use indicators, why not try today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just_words Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I don't think all cars have indicators, especially really expensive ones, that could be the problem. Mothers with children on board near schools also seem to suffer from this problem too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppins Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Don't the indicators automatically turn off after you've made the turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
