Comment on Are most people who avoid turn signals do it to feel more normal? (Imitating their parents, avoiding perceived stupidity of using turn signals when it seems useless, etc)

Had two girlfriends (in a row!) that hated turn signals because they kicked off their “repetitive noise disorder” (misophonia). My wife hates the regular motion of her windshield wipers, fucks with her head, uses them manually.

We can’t expect this many humans to play together nicely.

This is me. I do it anyway, but I do really really hate it. If I’m sitting at a long light waiting to turn left I will turn it off, unless I am the first or last person in line. I also manually turn it off half way through the turn before the steering wheel action turns it off. It’s like someone is drumming their fingers on my skull.

But for merging, lane changing, etc., I always use it.
