Same except 40 years and 4 months. I've always been a turn signal user.
All drivers are evaluated on the George Carlin scale - everyone who drives faster than me is a maniac and everyone who drives slower than me is a moron. I suspect I'm aggressive enough that 20% of the morons out there think I'm a maniac, but I'm way less aggressive than the maniacs I see out there every day doing 90 in rush hour traffic, weaving in and out, no turn signals, etc., and it was the same when I was driving my Civic (first new car) 35 years ago as it is now with my BMW.
When I was first driving it was Cadillac I always commented on - "How come such top of the line cars don't come with turn signals?" Same for drivers here with IL plates instead of MO. I never had a negative view of BMW drivers when I wasn't one. Plus ca change...
