They think that everyone in the world knows their flippin' intentions and when I hit the I-196 and M-6 interchange heading toward Holland every morning, it never fails that some douchebag decides to change lanes where I have to merge and they don't use their turn signal and then get mad at me for trying to merge correctly. Nothing seems more arrogant to me than someone who thinks I should know when they're turning.
Likewise, I love how when I'm getting on the highway on the way home from work, and I signal that I'd like to move over out of the lane I'm in (which turns into an exit only lane about a quarter mile down), nobody will let me in. Because yes, my turn signal, showing that I'd like to get over, is a joke. I just have it on for shits and giggles.
