Why do drivers wait to turn on their car blinker after they are in the turning bay?

People, we know you are turning when you are already in the bay! How about giving us some heads up and turn your blinker on letting us know you are going to turn into the bay BEFORE you turn into it? Think a little harder and the concept of the blinker will hopefully come to you!!

Because people are stupid and don't pay attention. To busy talking on cell phones.

They usually do it because they have spotted a cop>

another good question that really has no answer: Why do some driver never use the turn signal (blinker) at all?

Hi No, Alot of people are just rude and don't give a S H I T. When they finally get hit from behind ,then they will start using their blinkers.

Because they are inconsiderate. Or they have a delay option on their signal lights (lol).

Because they have tunnel vision and are thinking of only what's in front of them.

Because they forget there are other drivers on the road and the blinker is for the OTHER DRIVERS not THEM. I agree completely, although I'm sure i've done that a couple of times myself, I'll be more aware now! Thanks, you may even have saved some lives.

very annoying

I know how you feel, the blinker is on the wheel where they have there hands, what is so hard to turn it on. many don't even bother to turn it on, they just slow up. many times I see people driving all over the road and you think they are drunk but they are talking on the cell phone instead of pulling off to the side or no answering the phone and let the people talk into the answering machine instead.

I think they are just confirming to themselves that they've finally made the Right Decision to turn at that location,
after sitting there a moment & considering all the possibilities

And the little Clicking noise from the Blinker is reassuring to them,,
Kinda like Applause.

What's a blinker? I usually jump out of the car and run around screaming, "AHHHH!!! I'm turning! I'm turning!!!!" Some sort of device that I could use from inside the car to turn on an electric light warning those around me that I'm going to turn would seem like a safer and easier way to do it though. I hope that gets invented some day.
