All Car Drivers hardly use Indicaters at inersections

Dear All,
I saw some thing very strange yesterday, I was at the small intersection showing my car indicator to turn right,the opposite car was coming in high speed towards my car showing beam light without indicators, it's so horrible to see such attitude on roads, this kind of incidents happening every second everywhere in Doha.
I would suggest Humbly every one that we must respect each other on roads,show indicators at non signal intersections it helps the other car as well as the pedestrians some times it saves lives, we can build a safe society on wheels.
i admit i misbehaved too but maybe because of sudden burst..won't do it again..thanks!
i rest my case my friend..thanks!
babyjelly, still he could of been someone else, there are Chinese people that speak Arabic and wear a kondura.
but babyjilly, you shouldn't have slapped him..Its wrong.
You could have very well shouted at him or report to the police station about the odd behavior.
dfrt444 obviously because he's wearing a blue sri lankan cricket uniform.. and talking in sinhala language..
Good suggestion......
Very true....
So many people are happy to use their fog lights, but not their indicators.
What is wrong with these people?
I think they put them in cars as style only!!!!!!
Hey babyjelly, how did you know he was sri lankan? did you have tea with that person earlier, or are you profiling like some others, jeeez.
they use bumper indicator to indicate their muscle
@ Brit: The guy must be a Nepali! haahhaha!!!
True story: I was with a guy once who would put his hazard warning lights on (both blinkers) at intersection to show that he was going straight :O(
HEAD LIGHTS BLINKING are mostly used in qatar than indicator signal lights..especially when those compact TRUCK autos are approaching neither behind you nor any of your side. Be safe always and never argue with idiot drivers out there..stay away from them instead.
we all need to install cameras on our cars and then report violators to police... that's the only way.
When you see another car at an intersection, think to yourself "what would a normal, rational, thinking person do?" And then anticipate that the other car will do anything but this.
There's a reason why road deaths are so high in this country, and it's not because of unsafe cars, bad driving conditions, or poor roads. It's because so many people driving here are idiots.
Good to see your observation, which itself is set to create some awareness. Yes, indicators are the most essential part of safe driving, and everyone is requested to use them even if they are 100% sure that non is around them.
One example, i was driving late night on salwa road and did not use indicator, after seeing that none is around, i started changing the lane without indicator, and all of a sudden one car just flashed past, giving me a total surprise as i barely managed to pull back. While he did not give any sign of his running past, my self check system told me to strictly follow the indicators even when the road is empty and none is around.
they should include Mental Test in the Driving School also..i experience the same with my left indicator on as I am about to make a U Turn..this stupid Sri Lankan Driver in full speed blinking his head light at us I'm with my 6 year old daughter and my wife when the incident happen. my wife open the car window on her side and ask the ignorant driver what his problem.. Instead of saying sorry he shouted at her..what I did? i came down and slap him in his face took his number and reported it to police.. after a week we met at the police department and there I was shocked he uttered the word "SORRY"...
Not using indicators makes driving in doha more exciting, if everyone used their lights so you knew which way they were turning, driving in Doha would be so boring.
It is costly to buy a new car battery now a days, so that's why they try to minimize the usage of indicators. lol
some driver they don't know the purpose of car indicators, they missed to think that is the only language used by land transportation.
