Indicating

[Mike54]

What's happened with car drivers? Almost no one seems to indicate on roundabouts anymore? And turns off smaller roads, they just brake, you think hello what's this, then they turn, no indicating. Wtf is going on?

Ive noticed the same thing, as did my mate who had me pmsl when he had a go at a young driver " There not Fecking Christmas lights, you dont use them once a fecking year".

I've been told they are not taught to indicate anymore :pinch:

I've noticed this too. I think it's symptomatic of people becoming more unconsciously selfish. As in, not being maliciously selfish (like when you snatch the last sweet when you're a kid to stop your brother having it!) but selfish in the sense that they're more inwardly focused and less aware of other people and their possible impact on them. It's the same with people not saying thank you when you hold the door open for them. And I suspect also reflects other "selfish" driving habits and behaviours. (Unconsciously: "why do I need to indicate, I know I'm making a turn".)

Indicators are optional extras on cars aren't they

Agree with this entirely - fewer and fewer people seem concerned within much outside their own little bubble. Not malicious, just unconcerned.

How do you expect folk to indicate when they need one hand for steering wheel/apply make up and the other to hold the phone??
Some use them to indicate that have turned left/right.
