Turn Signals

I drive a car that is more than 30 years old and my blinkers work.

As I drive the highways and streets of Ventura County, everywhere I look I see people who have been swindled out of their hard-earned cash. I find myself driving behind some impressive cars that give the impression of status and luxury and have to remark to myself that it is such a shame that the owner has spent money on a car without working turn signals. New, used, even cars as old as mine suffer from the same problem.

I understand that in this prosperous era we are fortunate to be living in we should enjoy the opportunity to spend a little bit on the finer things in life, such as a new car. But please, if you are considering such a purchase, do me a favor and ask the dealer if it comes with turn signals.
