Top Ten Reasons for Drivers not using their indicators
- I’m performing an illegal manoeuvre and the Garda might notice
- I’m only changing lanes
- I’ve passed my test
- I’m on my second provisional license
- I’ve stolen this car
- I’m driving a white van/taxi/mercedes/BMW
- It should be obvious from my road position what I’m planning to do
- I’m running this red light (see reason 1)
- Using my indicators runs down the battery
- I used my indicators yesterday
I’d put “What are indicators?” pretty high up the list.

Lol all very good “reasons” Judging by what I have seen, I just assumed that some people thought they came as options on a vehicle. Perhaps they think it is for aesthetic puropses only and they turn them on over christmas. 😐 Wow, I can not believe all the blogs on Drivers that there are. I didn’t realize how many until I had posted my own blog and tried to find it. lol
