    I kind of just stay behind the car in front of me and let their actions tell me their intent.

    I can’t be too hypocritical because I fail to signal on a bike much - I’m using two hands to control my braking and direction, and signaling costs one.

      I like to signal well before I start turning so that I have both hands to complete the turn. I also don’t use the legally defined turn signals since I find cars don’t understand most of the time and it’s easier just to stick an arm out in the direction I’m turning.
