Correct me if I'm wrong, but motorcyclists can't signal with their right hands because they need them on the throttle all the time. We cyclists are not constrained in that way.
I've been signaling most of my turns with my head lately. Whatever works. This is where I use the law as a guideline, not as an absolute rule. I follow the spirit of the law more than the letter of the law here.
[MENTION=364898]Insidious C.[/MENTION], I don't follow. Why does turning in left in front of you indicate he understood? You're in North America, right? If you're turning right and he's turning left, he should have waited for you, no?
