Default A strange phenomenon

After extensive analysis of my personal observations, I have concluded that 50% of vehicles driven on roads in TV are defective. Can't understand why so many vehicle manufacturers, foreign and domestic, do not equip their vehicles with directional signals?

I believe that the problem is a loose nut behind the wheel!

Assumption is that everyone fore and aft of the driver is a mind reader

It has been said "turn signals are to indicate your intentions, not to comfirm your actions".

In Lexington, i really believe that turn signals are an option on all vehicles,and it seems numerous folks save a bunch on not buying that option.If you ask a resident of my town, if their turn signals actual works,many will reply ............... Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes.No.

While traveling through Indiana last summer I noticed that almost EVERYONE on the interstate used their turn signal, as if it were an actual law there to use them . . . go figure!
