6. Do you find that reaching up and turning on that pesky turn signal is more effort than you care to expend while driving? Not bothering to use your turn signal is the sixth-most irksome thing you can do when behind the wheel.

I usually holler out the window, "Were turn signals an option that year?"

Here in DC I've developed the habit of staying a little farther away from the car ahead of me in front of a stop light than I used to. All to often, they are turning left, and don't signal, except perhaps to note the turn for history.

With extra space, I can often turn around them, traffic permitting, and not lose a light cycle.

I blink or flash my headlights when people change lanes ahead of me without signalling, depending on whether it's daytime or night.

Once, turned out it was a cop.

Oh, well.

Sometimes when I pass them I will put the blinkers on a couple of times without making the turn.

Many times thats enough to wake them up, sometimes they give me a thank you wave.
