I use my indicators when reversing out of a parking spot. It’s the way I was taught, and it makes sense to me, but apparently it’s weird.

You know what I hate? People using their hazards to indicate that they're loading/unloading. You can already indicate towards the pavement to do the same thing and it actually says "hey I'm just pulled in here" instead of using the "something's gone wrong" lights.

Eh, I can understand it though. Say you pull over to the right, have your right blinker on, someone behind you will not see the left light lit up, and if you are already stopped your brake lights aren't on.

With hazards, the full car is displayed.

If it's coming from a place of safety I think it's sensible. I so don't see it as particularly dangerous to adopt, other drivers slow down at most and see you and ignore you at least

That said, if we're coming from the place of safety, usually these instances the person should just fully park instead of pulling over with hazards.

I can understand it, it still bothers me though. I think it's mainly because most of the time it's taxi drivers parking in the worst spots.

Taxi and Uber drivers shouldn't ever be doing it in the first place so 110% agree with you there. It's awful in San Francisco sometimes lol
