Drivers frequently change their hand placement as they turn the wheel. You lose precision and basic ability to manipulate the wheel if you don't.
Quoting yourself won't magically make you right.
So why do it?
It was. You're just plain wrong so it was ignored.
Again, it depends on the angle of the steering wheel. The buttons may be upside down if the car is turning sharply enough.
Do you stick your hands to the steering wheel with Krazy glue?
You can't be serious if you think people don't take sharp turns from time to time and have to indicate.
I'll do it your way...
I was replying to this comment:
Are you seriously telling me you never reposition your hands on the steering wheel?
This is total nonsense:
Ever heard about U-turns? You need to signal while doing those too. That's just one example that disputes your position.
I'll write it down simply and then I'm done because getting through to you is seemingly impossible.
People sometimes need to turn on their indicators while not driving in a straight line. It happens, accept it.
