Why don't people use turn signals?

I wonder if they should make new cars to lock the wheels in the straight position until a turn signal has been activated. That will take human ignorance out of the equation.

They're lazy. 4
They're stupid. 2
They're selfish. 4
All of the above. 21

    While people who don't signal annoy me as well(seriously, they're like, EVERYWHERE in this town), adding that feature would probably cause accidents and lawsuits.

    Cause they are stupid! Now, I get if you are the only car on some calm street, then you don't have to signal. I don't.
    But you can't just prance about in the road, without turn signals. You can't suddenly slow down for a right turn, without indicating.

    I use the horn to deal with such idiots.

    As for your suggestion... Cars should lock the steering wheel. How do you take a corner? You signal on every corner?!

    What if you have to avoid something. Like a child in the road, or a car that cuts you off. You signal before you do that?!

    It's complete idiocy this idea of yours.

    Whores use handsignals..

    It does piss me off but I'm not surprised that people are so stupid. I'm really in rage mode now because summer has begun even though it's not summer yet. These fuckin New Yorkas. Ugh. It is funny seeing how lost and confused they get trying to navigate roads that aren't the grid. Bwahahahaha!!! No I won't give you directions because you and a thousand other jerks can't see that this is a one way road! I hate you all! Baddabing mothafucka!

        I'm sorry. I get whipped into a frenzy at this time of year. I live in a very small town by the ocean and every year oodles and oodles of people flock here. They are rude, sloppy, loud and have no regard for the residents. I hate the summer time :(

          Gosh, that sucks. You live in a small town by the ocean sounds cool enough only to be ruined by those flock of bad birdies. Teach those guys some lessons when they happened to screw up with you.

    I would like to mount a paintball gun to the front of my car with a remote trigger and blast people who do stupid shit while driving. I've also thought about mounting a freighter sized horn up front that makes a horn blaring, tire squealing, fender and glass crashing sound whenever I want to remind someone to pay attention.

      May I suggest mounting a loudspeaker under the hood with a microphone in the drivers seat. Then you could remind the driver in question to use turn signals while on the road in a loud professional voice.

      Your idea does have some merit especially for some amusement park fun.

    The drivers who indicate when they're already turning or changing lanes annoy me too: it's as if they're saying "Look I've turned/changed lanes" when that's already obvious.

    A young friend of mine used to call them new age indicators because you had to be psychic to know what their intentions were

    I just run into the back of them. If they're gonna be too lazy to use turn signals, I'm gonna be too lazy to hit the breaks fast enough.
