I’m not talking about not using signal, but instead referring to drivers who turn off the signal so quickly.
Example when changing lane: Flick Signal on - Lane change - Signal off, literally 2 seconds and the car is not even moving fast to change lane.
Another example for when making a turn: 0.5 second to do Signal On - Turn - Signal off…
I swear on both of my nuts that these drivers arent even looking at the mirrors (any mirrors) or looking over their shoulders.
If you happen to do this, no offense but why? Is it to show the cops you did signal? Or there exists a signalphobia , i.e. the tick tock sound can annoy passengers?/
“Mirror, signal, manoeuvre” is what we’re taught in the UK. So according to our highway code you’re acting correctly,but obvs that may be different elsewhere.
Basically you only signal after you’ve confirmed there is space and that it is safe to do so, therefore the time between indicating and actually acting is minimal.
The main problem you see is some people drive aggressively and use signalling as a demand that others make space for them, move out of their way etc. That’s not how it’s meant to work.
