WA sprayer operator Rob Mitchell says a growing number of drivers are mistakenly interpreting his signal to turn right as an opportunity to pass him, with dangerous consequences.
Just gonna say, ive said thanks out loud in the car and given the truck the thumbs up after he just gave one or two clicks of the right-hand blinker saying we could pass (after being on their arse for a few kms). Multiple times.
But if it was stuck on and still blinking then I would not pass.
Just saying… Cos they’re not gonna write an article like this and it not existing.

Why would you not use your hazards? Using just one indicator really does seem insane…
What would hazards mean in this case? A hazard?
Two blinks of blinker is Imitating what you would do before you swoop out to pass…so least it makes sense.
