when i take my two children to school in the mornings we have to cross at a t-junction on a very busy road, and it is so annoying when car drivers dont indicate when turning corners. i am stood there with two children plus a baby in pram trying to work out the best time to cross and still ppl dont bother to use their indicaters. it really annoys me anyone else out their who feels the same? i am sure that there are also drivers out there as well who feel the same cause surely it must annoy you to???????????????

I only thought that happened in Greece. thats where I live and I have NEVER seen a driver indicate.
yes you are right to be annoyed, having said that be happy as you cant do anything about it. if you could say something Im sure you would.
if it would make you feel better, when the children are not looking put the V's up.

The only way to stop this is for the police to hand out either on the spot fines of say £50 which is recorded so it would then jump to £100 the next time and so on.
Or/and what about giving them one penalty point on their licence?
It's not just a sigh of being lazy, it's also a lack of consideration for other people on the road be it another driver or pedestrians.
I just wonder how many deaths through accidents have been caused over the years because a driver just couldn't be bothered to flick a switch.

I do hate it at roundabouts when people do not indicate - there are a number of accident spots where people just ignoring these things leads to accidents.
Tish P - how many car drivers do you know have been killed following a collision with a bike? I saw a guy cut in front of of bike today giving the rider inches to spare - car drivers need to show consideration to others as well.

Totally agree with you Stacey, my girlfriend has the same problem every morning taking our kids to school. Most drivers don't drive in a safe way, it must be very nerve racking for you. Maybe we should invent a type of cattle prod for cars, so if they don't indicate you can give them a shock, might wake them up a little and give you a giggle or two ;)

Yeah it does especially on the rounder bouts. It's annoying when you’re sitting there and someone doesn't indicate to turn left, so you think they are going straight on and then they just turn left. It's annoying also if someone is on the rounder about and you think they are going straight on because they are not signalling to turn right so you pull out thinking they are going straight on and then they suddenly continue to keep going round. It's dangerous. Like it take much effort to move a finger! The people that pull out in front of you on rounder bouts because they can't be bothered to look or stop as well.

Yes, it's highly annoying. Those drivers only think of their destination and how to beat the others in the race and others don't care at all.
Had the same experience with my kids.

That would really annoy me too, its dangerous and its putting lives at risk, I don't think some people know what their indicators are for or maybe they think there above the law.

It does my head in too. That and the fact that cyclists have no concept of 'red light, green light'. It's pretty much impossible to teach your kids road safety these days when there are so many idiots out there.

I also hate it when motorists don't use their indicators
I hate it when I'm at a roundabout and i have no idea where other motorists are going to turn off because they cant be bothered to indicate
