turn signal psych 

it's when a driver either turns without using their turn signal or when a driver has the turn signal on but doesn't make a turn.
the red BMW slowed the whole lane down when everyone saw they were signaling to turn but were "turn signal psyched" by going straight through the intersection.

Boston Turn Signal 

A lude gesture involving the extension of the third finger on the left hand out the window of a moving vehicle. While this gesture is most often reserved for the operator of the vehicle, passengers in the front and rear may be recruited as needed. ie. flying the bird as an excuse for driving like a masshole.

Illinois Turn Signal 

When a driver from Illinois suddenly veers into your lane for no reason, with no turn signal whatsoever. Usually performed at high speed, and when no other cars are in the vicinity.

The idea to teach the concept of "turn signals" has been floated through years in Illinois driver's ed schools, but nothing serious has come of it.

Outside of Illinois, it is most often seen by Wisconsin and Indiana residents due to the prevalence of FIBs.

Illinois passenger: Oh come on, he did use the Illinois Turn Signal.
