The only thing a turn signal means is that your turn signal light works.

That's ALL it will be held accountable for.

As the others mentioned, you don't know when the driver in front of you will change their minds. I didn't call the police, but took the woman information and she took care of my damages. Sometimes, we have to put trust in people.

You seem like a rather decent person , Earth could use more of similar mentality. However , you had the good fortune of tiffing with another person of like mindset who fulfilled her word. 99 percent of the time , it's someone trying to shoot some s#@ to avoid legal entanglements. I personally wouldn't do so , based upon past and present experiences , but I congratulate you.

Secondly , exactly where on 49 where they going 35? Unless it was in S.Carolina , or Harrisburg , all of them were going too slow. Unfortunately , she will have to atone for lack of pia matter on the other motorist's part. My suggestion to you would be to place audio/video recording devices in your cars to avoid this malady in the future. You know society is a nanny state catering to stupidity more with each passing second. Pity.
