Exactly, why would you tell the enemy what your doing. /s
-
I've driven in places where putting on a blinker would cause the cars next to you to speed up and close the gaps. If you wanted to get over, you couldn't let anyone know until it was too late for them to stop you.
-
In LA, using a blinker triggers this behavior. In Chicago, not using a blinker gets you hit. City driving cultures are weird.
-
If someone actually signals and eases into my lane I'm no surprised by their careful driving that I want to give them a little clap
-
YOU'RE*
FFS, it's not hard to get right, children are expected to know the difference.

Using the blinker is giving information to the enemy!
I love it when people use their signal when no one is around them then don't use it when shoving themselves in front of you.
-
Related are the people who won't let you merge on because they aren't in front of you... Then proceed to take the exit lane you're trying to merge off of.
-
Omg, I was thinking of that also. When they race around you, shove themselves in front, then take the next exit. Wtf? Are these toddlers behind the wheel?

from the looks of that bumper the drivers behind them can't read.

Yeah, right, maybe more like $7000 for that pristine beauty unless this picture was taken in 1992.

A local car dealership sells most of their cars for around $5000, and they look better than this. Sometimes I can find a gem there with only 168k miles.

Can someone explain this to me? I don't know why I'm not getting the joke. I might be too sleep deprived.

It (the car) cost $700, so the driver is unconcerned about damage as a result of an accident while merging. Lots of people on the road have this weird bully complex and actively prevent people from merging into their lane because they have faith that all the other drivers on the road care enough about their cars to not want to risk damaging them in a game of chicken. That really only applies to people who paid a lot of money for their cars and are hoping to retain some of that value for when they go to resell it.
Basically, the bumper sticker is warning people that if he starts to merge, he doesn't care if you speed up to close the gap in traffic, he's going to keep going and you'll probably the the one who loses money on the repair bill.

Even worse, chances are really good they have minimal insurance coverage. Even if they’re established as at fault, their insurance won’t cover repairs to most vehicles
-
Oh, I thought it was that it didn't the indicator didn't work. I've heard in America lots of states don't have mandatory safety checks on cars.
-
Technically, the law does say that your blinker is a request & it’s up to the other drivers to let you in, otherwise you have to wait until there are no drivers in the lane you’re merging into.

When your driving a lot of the time people's won't respect you and just trust that you will actively avoid accidents.
This guy is saying he doesn't give a fuck about his car, so that people will know not play chicken with him if they value their cars.

cheap car, a few scratches won't matter

Thanks for reminding me that they used to put spoilers on hatchbacks.

My 1991 S10 Blazer had one too. I think it helps to keep the back window clear by channeling air toward it. Interestingly, products like RainX won't work on old bricks like this or the pre-1990s trucks because the flat front directs air over the cab and not the windshield.

Are stickers on cars called blinkers? If not, the title doesn't make sense.
-
They're not, but you put your blinkers (turn signals) on when merging
-
Don't judge OC, maybe they drive BMW.
