Around here, you do not notice Prius drives failure to signal. As they
are traveling at negative speed most of the time. Especially at a signal
light change.

A lady driving a new BMW right in front of me turned into the WalMart parking lot. No signal. When
she got stopped I told her that her left turn signal wasn't operating.

"Oh my gosh," she said. "We just got this car out of the shop. I'll take it right back as soon as
I'm done here."

Oh well.

When did turn signals become a thing in DC? Must be all the new
comers. ;-)

Maybe she had the automatic turn signal option. :)

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.

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.
