    Classes of indicators?

    Indicators - occassionaly used.

    Confirminators - flash once, maybe twice, just to confirm that I'm not just drifting out of my lane and intend to cut you off. Buses commonly use these to cut you off too, after a stop.

    Imaginators - you'll have to imagine that I've signalled a lane change (or even looked).

    What other types have you seen lately?

    How about a "I'll say I did later"?

    A buddy joked years ago that he had a solution to prevent the closing of the CKD car industry in unzud. Just don't install the mirrors and indicators, it'll save a fortune, cos its not like they are used anyway.

    I was following a popo on the motorway about a week ago and witnessed all of the above happening in front ot the popo. Anyhoo, the popo just trucked along. It got me thinking and I've been watching since.

    Made some interesting observations, I rekon that bikers the worst offenders.

    What type are you when you are riding?

    There's the inverse indicator - indicate left and turn right. Only seen it once. Very rare in nature.

    Also the stuckonator. Used to signal to other road users that some time in the past you may or may not have made a turn.



    (Also the one for me, the superhuminator, the one that's always used perfectly just exactly the way it should be because I never make mistakes like everybody else...)
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
