Using hand signals is fine. What you're not grasping is, inoperative vehicle equipment IS a ticketable offense. Let's say you were in something a lot older that didn't come with turn signals. Then, you're likely completely in the clear. But to have original equipment like turn signals that don't work is ticketable. I guess it would depend on the officer's mood as to whether you get a ticket, but he'd be perfectly correct in his element to do it. If you cannot understand that, then I cannot help you.

Rusty, I don't want to poke the bear, pick a scab etc. As I have great respect for all your wisdom and common sense.
All state laws are different and we must obey the laws where applicable.

Here in Cali the rules may differ from other jurisdictions. Call has not required vehicle inspections for decades.

My 61 and 64 Mopars did not come equipped with seat belts therfore they're exempt.

I understand the Safety aspect of working lights etc. The 61 D100 is used 95 % of time for dump runs during daylight hours in a rural area where LEO is mostly focusing on Meth heads, women beaters, husband beaters, burglaries, assaults and on and on.

I again apologize and would hope you realize my position with the laws as I interpret them here.

I'd also going play the cantankerous old man syndrome card as . . .

Thanks again for the spirited debate.
Jeff
