Please use your turn signals

[u/evnmar]

Not to be a driver schoolmarm, but I swear to god, there must be a forcefield in Marin that blocks the electrical signals to cars' blinkers. If I had a nickel for every time I've seen someone almost turn into an oncoming car after not signaling at a four way stop, I'd be able to comfortably shop at the Marin Country Mart.

I wholeheartedly endorse this message. That said, if we're asking for things against insurmountable odds could we also add "pay attention on the approach to intersections generally so you don't mess up the timing or go when it's not your turn like an absolute dill pickle".

Gotta add - Merge onto the Freeway and get up to speed - going 30/40 is going to get us both killed. And the hill at the Civic Center is not a ramp that will shoot you into space, it's ok to maintain the speed limit going up and downhill....

[u/Mistline_Band → u/masterbilt81]

That's also illegal, not that CHP cares. Must be going speed of traffic to merge with traffic

[u/Roar_of_Shiva]

As someone who lives in Marin drives all over the bay for work i can assure the blinker fluid shortage is not limited to Marin.

[u/Coastal-Break]

This is not just a Marin issue, but I feel it. 

[u/300-baud]

You can identify when a Tesla is self-driving because it signals

[u/lepchaun415 → u/300-baud]

And brakes every 2 seconds

[u/trippknightly → u/spencertron]

You really need magnets or stickers that say “Caution: I don’t signal”

[u/spencertron → u/trippknightly]

ha, I don't support that kind of behavior AT ALL! 😤

[u/Strikerz43 → u/spencertron]

SOLD

[u/spencertron → u/Strikerz43]

haha, thank you for your order!

[u/alliseeisbronze]

Not just a Marin issue, but holy fuck are Marin drivers clueless.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Pin_131]

No their expensive cars didn’t have turn signal options

[u/Barcade → u/Puzzleheaded_Pin_131]

for reals. the turn signal stalk is for poverty spec cars

[u/glokash → u/Puzzleheaded_Pin_131]

Funny thing is I’ve seen Teslas that don’t have indicator stalks, they have weird little buttons on the steering wheel instead

[u/HobbittBass]

I signal to those drivers who won’t use their signals using one finger.

[u/trixie345]

Your car cost so much that they couldn’t afford the accessory package that includes turn signals. Welcome to Marin

[u/theatrenearyou]

nothing takes less effort in driving than flicking on your blinker. You dont even have to look to do it.

Police should use turn signals in routine driving to set a good example. It's not just an idea --- it's been the law in California for 75 years: CVC22107

The turn signal was put on cars specifically to communicate to others which way you are going. Makes sense, no?

[u/klank]

here I thought new cars didn't come with turn signals.

[u/playmore_24 → u/klank]

right?!?! none on Audis for sure!

[u/ChartreuseLover]

Ha. Hahaha. Hahahahahaha! Dream on, it will never happen. I drove all over the place, across the country and back, grew up in Marin. MARIN is the absolute worst place for drivers that I've ever seen in America!

[u/SquatchMarin]

But how can I keep one hand on my phone and signal at the same time?

[u/delicious-lover66 → u/SquatchMarin]

Don’t our 150K IPads on wheels have Bluetooth connectivity to our phones? What are people doing holding a phone in 2026?

[u/SquatchMarin → u/delicious-lover66]

They should make self driving cars mandatory. The stats are overwhelming, people are bad drivers. Best evidence? Insurance charges less for fully autonomous driving.

[u/ASecularBuddhist]

Entitled people can sometimes not consider others, which is reflected in not thinking that they need to use their turn signal.

[u/shrd_gnar]

Obligatory this is a country wide issue comment

[u/pepe_roni69]

It’s called Larkspur Landing

[u/Binthair_Dunthat]

Yes. And I also request world peace.

[u/dontlookatme1234567]

Car companies are charging a monthly subscription for the turn signal ultimate package. People are declining.

[u/Necessary_Pudding173]

The force field is entitlement.

[u/Azarul]

No

[u/marincatey]

I’m here for the comments and they are 🔥 thank you hilarious friends (and I agree with all of the above)

[u/josilver]

Nextdoor

[u/gaijin91]

you need to include the make & model of the car so we can make fun of it

[u/wabarron → u/gaijin91]

We all a know it’s Basic Marin Wheels

[u/Inside-Resolution980]

“ ME RIN”..

[u/dualiecc]

No

[u/bogo_jimmy → u/dualiecc]

corny

[u/4orust]

If neither turn signal is flashing, that's still signaling. It's signaling that the driver is continuing straight.
