    Have you ever seen someone use a turn lane to only jump out of it at the last moment? I have, too often. The signal is at least assurance to others I’m not a complete idiot and shows that I’m confident in the direction I’m driving.

    Not to say people who use turn signals don’t also do this.

      Have you ever seen someone with their turn light on, only for them to go straight?

      The turn signal is only an assurance that the driver has made contact with the signal lever, not their intentions.
