If a driver can be shown to have used a misleading signal that had resulted in an accident, then I would think they would be at least partially to blame. But it would need an independent witness to establish the fact, I’d imagine.
I know its a couple of years old… sorry, I’m sure the new edition is much more helpfull. You could plan a route far away from all those useless drivers :)
you sure he was’nt infact just indicating off the round about, end of the day if you crashed into him, you would be in the wrong, as in any other junction

The 2007 Edition includes a page of helpful hints for women drivers.
Hint No 3 is entitled: “How to throw a hissy fit effectively” and is aimed at all those women drivers (that’s all of them BTW) who are doing their makeup in the rearview mirror and totally miss direction signals given by male drivers. It also includes useful phrases for emergencies such as:
“He was in the wrong lane” (for use on single lane carraigeways).
“He didn’t indicate” (for usage – see above).
“But this is a one-way street” (for use on two way streets).
“I’ve only had one glass of wine” (for use when totally unable to stand).
“This is my husband’s / boyfriend’s car, he’ll kill me if he finds out.”
“I didn’t do anything, it must be YOUR fault.”
It concludes with the helpful advice that if all else fails, or if stopped by the Police, break down in tears and become hysterical. (A small piece of peeled onion is included to assist with tear production during the crying process). However, most female drivers won’t need this as they have had many years experience in instant tear production as a means of getting their own way.

FFS I thought this thread had died a death lol.
The answer to your question is NO.
I was coming up to a junction where there is a mini roundabout..with me so far? There is a road to my left and one to my right. Still with me? Good boy. On the other side of the mini roundabout is a brick wall with the college on the other side, so the only options are to go either left or right at the junction. You still with me? Good boy. I wanted to turn LEFT. Said prat, who had pulled up to the roundabout on my RIGHT, indicated LEFT as well, which meant he would have gone in the direction I,d just come from. You still geddit? Good boy. In fact said prat wasnt going left atall. I had to suddenly develop clairvoyant abilities and work out that his left indicator was in fact there for show, and he was going straight over the roundabout. So, he would have hit me on the drivers side. Do ya still geddit? NO I was NOT applying makeup, dont wear the stuff. Wasnt brushing my hair, it,s tied back. Wasnt on my mobile I dont own one. I wouldnt have crashed into HIM, HE would have crashed into ME, because it was HIS fault. Are you still with me? I can attempt to draw you a map if you still dont geddit. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:@nut case wrote:

How many accidents have you had in your driving career then? Got any points on your license have you? I havnt. I,ve never even had a parking ticket, and I,ve been driving for over 20 years. I,ve got a good route for that map if you like. 3 guesses where it can go. Dork. :roll: :roll: :roll:
