Can we add not indicating on roundabouts as a sub set of indicating or worse still cutting across the inside lane for an exit on a roundabout from the outside lane without indicating.Some people are like slinkys, totally pointless but the thought of pushing them down a flight of stairs never fails to put a smile on your face.Comment

I've chosen all of them and I'd like to add "scything across three lanes of the motorway to get to the exit cos you can't be bothered to plan ahead you stupid git".

The thing about indicating is that it should come after you have already checked your surroundings... i.e. Mirror, Signal, Manoeuvre.
If, after checking the who else is around you a signal isn't needed Either because
there is no one to signal to
or there would be absolutely no action needed on their part
or the signal may be confusing
or the signal would be wasted
Then don't signalComment

Another one to add to the list. This happens to me quite routinely in this town, and happened again today:
You are driving along and spot a parking space ahead on the left. You indicate and slow down, then stop just past the parking space and change into reverse ready for a bit of parallel parking. Meanwhile, the car behind you drives right up your arse! I usually just start reversing as if I haven't noticed them. One guy was beeping at me, so I carried on reversing as if I hadn't noticed him or heard him. He started backing up.Comment

Originally posted by dang65 View PostI've heard about this "roadcraft" thing before. If it actually exists then it is complete gibberish. If "...there is no one to signal to, then don't signal"!! What kind of professional driving trainer would assume that a human being could possibly know with any certainty whether there is "no one to signal to"?Coffee's for closersComment
