Ya, I think I will file one. I know the chief (I think thats what they are called, anyway, the head guy) and if anything it will at least get someone breathing some hot air down his shirt so he dont do it to someone else. I just dont like it, they see a 19 year old and just think "I can do whatever I want" even though, yes, I didn't signal.

Edited. My bad.

Never post without the first cup of coffee in the morning. Replies to the wrong thread are the least of it, though, I suppose.

I am sick and tired of cops, do they have NOTHING else better to do than pull me over at 8 o clock on a sunday morning? Failure to signal? Are you kidding me? Whatever....
And I'm sick and tired of people not signaling. ***! Am I suppose to guess you about to cut me off, or hit the brakes to make that turn. Show a little courtesy.

Also, when you make your right hand turns, pull over to the curb lane completely. Why should I have to stop because you can't get a clue!

Sounds like the cop had an attitude and was being an ***. I'd file a complaint.

Good luck with college.

L.A. is wwwwaaaaayyyy different in that regards my friend. You tell me the next time you signal in the suburbs taking a right at 7:45 on a sunday morning in a town of 7 thousand people. Im not talking about the highway here. But still, I see your point.

i took approximately 11 turns and 2 ramps on and off a highway on my way to work this morning at about 6am saturday in suburban minnesota in -5F degree weather with few other people on the road at all.

i signaled every single one of those turns, even the one out of my townhome driveway.

again. we all do break some laws driving here and there, just don't cry about it when someone actually holds you responsible for doing it.
