I don't know who needs to hear this (that's a lie: ~80% of drivers) but when you're in a turn lane or an exit only lane, you should still signal to confirm to those around you that you are aware of the lane you're in and where it's about to go.

@TechConnectify unless you're in California, in that case turn signals are optional

@TechConnectify Really, any time you’re deviating from going straight. I don’t know what it’s like elsewhere but here in lots of drivers simply don’t signal if there’s no car behind them.

@TechConnectify it drives me absolutely bonkers! If you are turning or changing lanes, ALWAYS SIGNAL!

@TechConnectify use your blinker! It's not like you're giving away state secrets; be predictable!

@TechConnectify Is that a law or a custom? During driving school they said a lot that's optional (I still prefer signaling, of course).

@qgustavor Whether it's a law depends on your jurisdiction, but I don't care about that. It's just the right thing to do and I want to help people understand why.

@TechConnectify This post was definitely directed at me and yes, I need to do this more consistently. Not so much the turning lanes but exit lanes for sure.

@TechConnectify I feel like from some of the replies the problem is also if you've accidentally gone into a turn lane you have to just accept that mistake. Go with it and turn around somewhere unless you're absolutely sure it's safe to move back to another lane.

@TechConnectify IONIQ 5 goes nuts when I do thinking I’m going to change lanes into my neighbor. Drives me crazy.

@TechConnectify this is the sort of stuff cops should write tickets for, but I guess they're too busy arresting students for existing at their own university

@TechConnectify People around Chicago signal as if they've just finished reading Sun Tzu's The Art of War.

@TechConnectify look, just because you can afford to top up your blinker fluid every week doesn't mean everyone else can too.
