The worst thing is when they turn it on half way through the turn.

Right? What the hell is the point of that! The entire point of a turn signal is to tell people you're going to turn. I'm pretty sure everyone has figured out you're going to turn when they see you turning.

I know!! Or when they turn it on like 5 minutes early so it totally kills the purpose. It's like.. Ok they're going to turn. Nope, I guess the next one. Nope..

An older lady didn't use hers at all as I was following behind from an appropriate and safe distance. It was raining, and all of a sudden she slows down fairly quicky to turn. I had to press my brakes hard to keep from hitting her which just caused me to lose traction with the wet roads. I slid into the sidewalk curb which ruined my steering wheel to wheel alignment. The lady made her turn and just kept on driving.

That's awful! I bet that was a hefty fix. I wonder if she even realized she caused an accident. I'm thinking she was just oblivious. I always get worried when I turn my signal on in an appropriate amount of time and while turning the people behind me aren't slowing down. It ends up making me speed up my turn because I don't want to be rear-ended. I'm not completely stopping as I turn; I slow down enough to make the turn quickly.
