I have this problem with people doing a left turn from across the way in the mornings.  It’s almost like the people who live on the other side of this main drag really, really hate turn signals so much.  I can’t say I understand it, as turn signals have probably saved my life many times.

yeah, I just don’t get it. Turn signals are one of the few ways you can communicate to other drivers what you are going to do in order to prevent them hitting you. There is basically no downside to using a turn signal. Even if the person in the other lane is a total a hole they will just accelerate up past you and you will just have to pull in behind them.

I followed a younger lady in an older silver Honda CRV this morning for about 3/4 of a mile on the way to the freeway. Never signaled once, either direction, going through at least 7 turns and three lane changes. She also ran into oncoming traffic short cutting a wide left hand turn. She then proceeded to merge onto the freeway at 42-43  miles per hour immediately jumping into the center lane. I’m not a “judgey” person, pretty much live and let live, but she should not be driving...
