Importantly, if both drivers are driving properly then there will be no conflict, no right of way to yield, and no potential accident to avoid. If they are not driving properly then all bets are off.

I wonder if any research has been done to compare accidents resulting from the lack of use of turn signals with accidents resulting from trusting a turn signal that had not been turned off.
Maybe you could get a government grant for the study?
