I use it literally everywhere out of habit, I got made fun of for using it when pulling out of my moms driveway once lol
The only reason I won’t possibly use it is when I’m in a turn only lane at a red light and don’t want to listen to it for 3 minutes
Most people I find only use it 75% of the time at best.
I’m 2.5 years into driving and am curious if it’s just what semi-new drivers do or if I’m the odd one out.
Exactly right, if you make it part of your muscle memory, you don’t have to think about it, you just do it. Also, even if “no one’s there” 99% of the time you “didn’t need” to put on the signal, there will always be the 1% it helped somebody and you never even noticed.
OP should make fun of the people making fun of them.
