Some people give very little importance to safety.

Don’t you hate it when a driver doesn’t use their turn signals? If you had the opportunity to call them out on this problem, would you do it?

This man hates motorists who can’t be bothered to use their turn signals, and one day he had the perfect opportunity to confront the driver about the problem.

I wasted the time of a guy who couldn’t be bothered to signal in traffic.

Refusing to signal when changing lanes or turning is one of my pet peeves.

It’s painfully easy to do, and it makes the road a safer place.

I think it’s the height of ignorance\entitlement to not do it.

This man was coming behind a driver who didn’t signal during his turn.

One day, I was on my way home, I wound up behind a guy who was weaving through traffic.

He was driving pretty quickly and, of course, not signalling.

I noticed that he had a for sale sign in the rear window.

As luck would have it, I wound up behind him at a stop light.

He called the driver and pretended to be interested in the car.

So, I took the number down.

When I got home, I called him up.

I pretended to be interested in purchasing the vehicle, so I asked him the standard questions: age, mileage, why he was selling.

Then, I got to the question of if there was anything wrong with the vehicle I should know about.

He asked him about the signal lights.

He said no.

“Well, how about the signal lights? I didn’t see you using them when you were changing lanes or making turns. So, I wasn’t sure if there was an issue with them.”

He realized that the signal lights were indeed working.

“Oh, no. That’s just the way I drive.”

“Oh, okay. So, they do work then, good to know. Ok, well, I think I have all the information I need. Thanks for your time.”

He felt good about wasting the other driver’s time.

I’m not 100% certain if he got the hint.

I think it’s likely he did.

And I’m 100% certain that the next time he hit the road, he still didn’t use his signal lights.

But I felt good about wasting a bit of his time, and getting his hopes up on a sale.

That was a clever idea to call him pretending to be interested in the car. It’s interesting that he basically admitted he ignores the laws and doesn’t use his signal lights.
