Well my case is a little different but still the same. Today, I was flagging an intersection so when side traffic came up to me I had to find out which way they wanted to go and then either let them go or make them wait. All day long, people would approach. I would point 1 direction and then the other. I guess they would point with their hands not realizing that they were not visible due to rain. One guy, after me pointing in either direction for about 5 min. decided to roll down his window. I quickly yell out "WHAT WAY DO YOU WANT TO GO!!!!". He responds "TO THE RIGHT *******". I yell back "THAT's WHAT YOUR DAMN TURN SIGNAL IS FOR" and make him wait another traffic cycle REPEAT this scenario for 9 hours.

Hillsdale, once you got that kind of responce you should have told him that the direction he wanted to go wasn't an option. Then given him an alternet route to South America, I believe it's acceptable there not to use turn signals, he would have been right at home and clueless how he ended up there. Got to keep smiling Dude!

there is no excuse for not signalling, its just pure lazy, screw the rest of you ,i don't have to signal farktards...
even with a CD in hand a coffee in the other and a manny tranny i still signal all my intentions (and before i hit the damn brakes)
I even actually obey the the rules of the road on my bicyclette, that way when i get shmucked by some farker on his celly, at least i know i was in the right.BTW it is amazing how many people dunno the hand signals.

You're in law enforcement. You pass it and then stand in the bushes and see how many tickets you'll be able to write

Yep. I was cruising along minding my own business and as I approached an intersection that had a left turn lane to go into Wally World, this rocket scientist in a Camry that was in the left turn lane decides at the last minute to jump out into my lane. No signals, nothing. If I had've been about 10 feet farther up the road I would have nailed him.
