This. Actually, in my three years living here I've found Vancouverites to be quite inconsiderate in general.
I've lived and driven in 4 major cities in my life .. Calgary, Vancouver, Atlanta and Dublin ... and I'd say that nowhere was driving more stressful than in Vancouver. The only thing
less frequent than an actual turn signal when changing lanes is the subsequent wave afterwards. Both are a rarity here.
I also think the infrastructure is a joke considering that Vancouver strives to be the 'greenest' city in the world. "Let's show the world how green we are by expanding bike lanes and minimizing freeways .... I'm sure no one will notice that we actually caused a 20 minute increase in commute time and emissions for drivers."
