Love your neighbour, indicate when you change directions.

We all forget to indicate when we change directions, don’t we? Most of the time, we don’t even think about it, and some of us never indicate.

One incident reminded me of the importance of indicating when we change direction. I was approaching a stop sign at a crossing, and the car in front of me had already stopped. The road was wide, and although the other car wasn’t indicating, he was bearing right and he seemed to be turning right. So I went onwards and stopped on his left side, since I was going straight. I looked around and started to cross the road. The guy on my right did the same, but instead of turning right, started turning left (no indicators on). We were going slowly, and looked at each other. He let me go before him and turned. No accident, the guy didn’t look angry or upset that I had gone forward at the same time as him. But it made me think: isn’t indicating where I am going a way to show love to my neighbour? So, if you truly love your neighbour,  next time you change direction or if you are going to take a car over on the motorway, please, put your indicators on.
