Gee,
  And I thought it was only drivers in the DC-MARYLAND-VIRGINIA area
that didn't use their turn signals.  I actually looked in the
state handbook (for the first time in years) and yes, it is the *law*.
I'm actually thinking of doing an unscientific sampling to see
what percentage of drivers making turns actually use their turn signals.
Should be interesting.
