I use it literally everywhere out of habit, I got made fun of for using it when pulling out of my moms driveway once lol

The only reason I won’t possibly use it is when I’m in a turn only lane at a red light and don’t want to listen to it for 3 minutes

Most people I find only use it 75% of the time at best.
I’m 2.5 years into driving and am curious if it’s just what semi-new drivers do or if I’m the odd one out.

      Well, that’s really a special case. If you’re literally alone in the middle of nowhere with nobody to care, the only reason to blink would be to keep the habit intact. Other than that, any situation where it might be useful for others to know what your intentions are, the blinker is a useful tool, on or off the road.

        There were about 6 of us…you know, 5 making fun of me. We were offroading on trails in a wooded/forested area versus open mud/sand fields. As I was choosing directions on which trails to take, I used signals as was habit.
