INDICATING

I know this was done some time back, BUT, I have just been out on a little errand in the car, the amount of people that just do not indicate, is quite amazing.
It just staggers me , this old woman pulled straight out in front of me with no indication whatsoever of her intentions, if I hadn"t been quick witted I would have run right into her. She just sailed past me and didn't turn a hair.
Don"t know if it is just particular to the area I live, some people just should NOT be on the road
hmm

I do not think you should expect people to indicate while driving, it is very dangerous when you have a mobile phone in one hand, a burger in the other and a laptop on your knees. Any way if you are driving behind someone you should know in advance when they are going to turn, brake or undertake.

Thank goodness I no longer drive.

Ah but littleflo they are not smoking because there is a posse of children in the back. So that's all right then.

My dad used to say 'never believe what that indicator says - the driver could be a complete idiot!'

Those folk who manage to find their indicator and then forget to switch the damn thing off!
