What laws would you change or introduce. Options

That means when navigating a long left hand turn your indicator will be going off?

Think it through.

I suggest the opposite: ban indicators. They are too difficult for people to use!

[x2lls]

Don't you mean make the use of them mandatory? Or that when the wheel is turned they come on without human intervention?

Mandatory would be good, but coming on when the wheel turns is a bit late lol

I have.
Did you not understand my logic?

Quite!!!!




Actually, I was being sarcastic, by implying that due to what appears to be the majority of drivers (Or do they just not use them when they encounter me?) failing to use them, I thought the manufacturers had stopped fitting them. It may be helpful if instead, they include in the price, a training session or two so that we can become psychic!

If there was any logic to it then I would probably understand it.

Sorry for the delay had to go back furyther than I thought

One of the several difficulties with what you propose is that the Human Rights Act hasn't got anything to do with the supposed problems that you take issue with. Why do you think it has?

Just a few

So you're saying bring back the death penalty. Fine, I agree. But why do you want to repeal the HRA?

I did not say repeal HRA, I said with regards to convicts

Strange, women seem to find it a lot easier to use them than men.

Unfortunately they also find driving a much harder task.

Not sure why that posted twice but again!

I think everyone should indicate at all times, regardless of lack of traffic.
There are often jaywalkers who would be happy to see where a car is going.
Such as moi.
It also keeps you thinking about your driving. I always indicate.
Most cars have a 3 or 4 second short burst. In queues at roundabouts
it is easy to do when you are next in line.

Personally I do look for indicators whether as a jaywalker or a driver.
I don't think it should be an end of the world offence though.

Well, if they put more into it (indicating, keeping below the speed limit, watching for pedestrians, etc) I guess it is harder.

I'd probably change the laws of physics.

So you are Higg's Bosun then.

At the speed of light perhaps that should be Bosun Higgs.

Actually, it does the opposite as signalling becomes automatic rather than taking account of the immediate conditiods/situation

[Nothing Much]

Can't agree with that, not an automatic gesture at all.
I just judge the road and who else is there, or likely to appear.
And there is usually someone else to consider these busy days.

Indication is not a right of way nor is it a signal for a manoeuvre. Having an indicator flashing does not mean you can push infront of someone or cut someone up...infact it means you're a complete male chicken.

How many people indicate to turn left and then drive past several junctions/turnings before actually turning right?

How many people drive down a straight road with their indicators on because they are too stupid to notice the big green flashing light on their dashboard or the sound of the relay (the click click click click)?

Additionally how many people indicate about 2 meters before their chosen junction and slam their brakes on...

They've even got their own website and association !!!!!

If you read that website most of it is compilations of crashes, parking dings, and that sort of stuff.
