me either. I go when I have enough room to do it.
On rare occasions when traffic is very heavy and very slow, and I want to turn, I get the attention of the driver and make sure he gives me the room I need before I go.
It just kills me when I see someone just stick an arm out and go (they probably think it's a safe thing to do too!)
