OT -- do you use your turn signal when no one is there to see?

Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately, depending on your
viewpoint) that is the modus operandi for driving in the
area. Whoever goes the fastest, is the most aggressive, and
has the 'biggest balls' wins.

It seems to me that here in Ottawa, among
pedestrians, the faster ones get out of the
way of the slower ones, but in Vienna it's
the other way around: the fast walkers
expect slower walkers and stationary people
to get out of their way.

Maybe these two different modes occur for
car drivers, too.

The problem occurs when people who are
accustomed to different systems interact
with each other.
