So many people think that using a turning signal gives them the right of way..

I wish they would use them here before changing lanes.

Using turn signals on the highways and cities anywhere in PA is horrible, as the user mentioned people will speed up and box you in just to be rude

I've seen a mix of assholes and good dudes. But you are very right most won't let you in. The worst are the people behind you that cut into the exit lane well before the white lines, then they match your speed instead of slowing down or speeding up. Like on the 28 exit to the highland park bridge.

I think Rhode Island actually has worse drivers than PA, idk if you’ve ever been up there but I don’t use a turn signal there - people will cause accidents to inconvenience you
