I use hand signals when I drive my Dragon or Cheetah. I took a nice drive today and did so.
last summer I was driving through Keene Valley in the Adirondacks. A large white truck was following fairly close. I used a right hand signal as I turned onto a road that takes me back to my home town of Ellizabethtown. Right after the turn there is a long uphill stretch with an added passing lane. I was cruising in the slow lane. The driver of the truck followed me then pulled up alongside me. He motioned that he wanted me to stop. I thought that he wanted to talk about my car so I obliged.
He pulled behind me and stopped a few car lengths behind. I watched in the mirror as he slowly got out of his truck and walked to the car. When close he yelled " Why were you flipping me off!" I yelled back that I wasn't flipping him off. That I was manually signaling a right turn. His demeanor immediately changed and he apologized.
