I’m not talking about not using signal, but instead referring to drivers who turn off the signal so quickly.

Example when changing lane: Flick Signal on - Lane change - Signal off, literally 2 seconds and the car is not even moving fast to change lane.

Another example for when making a turn: 0.5 second to do Signal On - Turn - Signal off…

I swear on both of my nuts that these drivers arent even looking at the mirrors (any mirrors) or looking over their shoulders.

If you happen to do this, no offense but why? Is it to show the cops you did signal? Or there exists a signalphobia , i.e. the tick tock sound can annoy passengers?/

    The tick-tock sound annoys the driver. Dated two women in a row who did this and both had “repetitive noise disorder”, misophonia. My wife has a sort of thing like that were she can’t stand the rhythm or noise of the wipers.

    I completely made up “repetitive noise disorder” years ago on reddit. Now Google AI returns it as a legit result. Am I famous now?!
