Firstly, I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about the Advanced Driving Community. However, I am fairly typical, so the two amount to the same thing.
You think you are typical? You overrate the AD community!![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)
I think that the most important thing by far is that we're having this conversation and thinking about what we're doing.

Seems like we are in broad agreement then. ![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)
1) People should be checking all around.
2) People should be considered & thoughtful in relation to the timing of their signals & whether they may mislead.
3) Habitually signalling without thought is not a good thing.
4) Not signalling when there is nobody around is not problematic.
5) Signalling where there is nobody around is not problematic.
4) Giving a signal without somebody else being around may not be good evidence that all around checks haven't been performed, the driver may just be operating to an alternate philosophy that gives them personally better results.

Anyway, why on earth has someone dragged up one of my posts from the depths of historical forum ramblings of eight years ago and set all these hares running again? The original post was never intended to be about the rights and wrongs of signalling under certain circumstances, on that subject there was never any doubt as obviously I knew that I was right!

I think I know the answer but don't want to appear a smart arse!
