When did turn signals become a thing in DC? Must be all the new

The lack of turn signal use and the running of red lights are the 'in' thing around here now.

Stop lights that have turned red. And I don't mean cheating on the yellow light. They just barrel
through the red light.

LOL. My mind went to them running some kind of lights *on* their cars.

Heh. Running red/stop lights isn't a thing just around there.

Having a green light is never a carte blanche invitation to enter an
intersection. I always look both ways. It used to be mostly old
geezers who were oblivious to the world. Now it is also youngsters,
screwing with their phone or a dash board toy.
I also almost got T boned by a fire truck once that was running about
50 without his siren. He blew that air horn after I was already in the
intersection. (on a green light)
When I called the fire house with a WTF the chief told me they only
used their sirens/horns when they saw a conflict because of complaints
from the neighbors.

That is more like tradition. You certainly don't want to be the first
car stopping after the light turns red because the concrete mixer is
still coming.
Turn signals were always the sign of a tourist.

That's why God made rear-view mirrors.

Not any more. Usually it's a DC plate.
