When did it become uncool...

When did it become uncool to signal when driving? On my way to work today, I almost saw three accidents from people who failed to signal. So when did that become so uncool? More than half of those people had some electronic devise stuck to their ear, but not all. I just want to know when did it become such a burden to flip that little bar up and down?

You should have posted this message on that thread that we had going about bicycling.

Utah bicyclists would give you lots of rep points or dancing produce.

One of my favorite places to ride is by the dump at 56th West & California. At least trash truck drivers are professionals who signal and don't talk on cell phones when they drive. Unlike most Utah drivers.

See, you've forgotten a very important fact. All Utahns are farmers, and they learn to drive at an early age, just on tractors. Unfortunately, they don't put turn signals on tractors, so they never learn to use them. It's not their fault.

I can only say you need to try driving through New Jersey then you'll appreciate Utah drivers more. Signal? Heck no! And give away my game plan. If you didn't predict that I was going to cut you off, It's your own fault, even if I was three lanes over a block back.
