I have been driving 22 years, and one thing that winds me up is motorists who do not use indicators!
Whether they are just c**p drivers and can't be bothered, or really don't know the rules of the road especially at roundabouts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get them off the roads!!!!

Apparently you can now fail your driving test for using your indicators too much it's called unnecessary signalling. Whoever came up with that one wants shooting. on a two lane roundabout how the heck are you supposed to know if they are coming straight across going all the way round or turning left when no-one signals- I'm not a mind reader. So why do they put signal stalks in cars, It beggars belief. I'm with you get em off the roads how can signalling be unnecessary it's being courteous to other drivers and pedestrians and letting them know of your intentions. Arrgh. Going to have a coffee now the rant is over. Have a nice day.

Yep! I dont drive that often but drivers think that because you're a pedestrian that you're not taking any notice. I need to know their intentions just as much as anybody else.

What winds me up more though is cyclists who ride in pitch darkness without lights and pedestrians who cant use pelican crossings properly (ie they'll press the button and then run across the road before their signal comes on or just press the button and then carry on walking up the samxe side of the street. AWWWW DONT GET ME STARTED! lol.

Yes they are an absolute pain. I am fully aware that an indicator light means that the indicator light is working but at least it gives a warning of a possible change of direction.
Far more dangerous are the undertaking merchants on a roundabout.

Yes it especially annoys me at roundabouts when cars take a first left without indicating and you end up waiting ages when you could have pulled out.

The ones that indicate but then don't go where they're indicating really get me.

Or, yes, on motorways when they indicate just after they've cut you up. I think some new cars must have it written in the manual that the indicator means "see what I just did there?"

Those kind of drivers don't bother me so much any more.
After 60 years driving, 55 of which were spent in semis and
over the road I have a trick. I observe and analyze the
conditions in front of me. Then I try to imagine the most
stupid action the drivers in front me could choose. Then I
count on it! They are dependable. I'm very seldom surprised. Have fun and enjoy.

Yep it's like they have forgotten mirror signal manoeuvre!! I hate it when drivers just slow right down without any warning so you have to slam your brakes on as they have decided they are turning off the road but didn't bother to let anyone know behind them

Yes they are a NIGHTMARE!
as said above it is not hard to just extend your pinkie to catch the indicator stalk is it?
I know a lady with a disabillity, her arms are very short, she has her car adapted and she can manage to drive better than a lot of able bodied people!
They are just lazy asses!

yes they do most of all the ones who decide when they are on a junction then start to turn for example left are half way round the corner then decide to indicate and glare at you as if to say why are you still waiting to get out into the traffic.
