Changing a lane? Blinker.
Making a turn? Blinker.
You think nobody is around and doing either? Blinker.

And no, the use of your blinker does not indicate your right of way. Be courteous and if changing into a faster lane, make certain it's clear and keep speed with the traffic in that lane. Additionally, don't pull out into traffic and creep across 3 lanes, making traffic slam on their brakes around you so you can make the next turn: get to speed while moving over, and if necessary, make a u-turn a turn or two up or two left turns. And, for the love of Zeus, if you mistakenly make a commitment to a turn lane, keep it and correct your err after making the turn - do not jettison back out into flowing traffic.

All these drivers make me frightened about getting my Z in the next couple weeks!

It does make me nervous, because half the time I look two, maybe three times and still am not sure if there's someone there or not (when I'm actually the only one on the road!). :icon17:

Crap drivers. I love the goons who shoot up your arse and then when i will not speed up, they shoot to the next lane and do the same to another driver. If only it were legal to blast them off the highway.

Try doing this. It's weird at first, but it almost eliminates blind completely for me.
