Probably a more annoying (and definitely more dangerous) situation
is the careless driver who leaves a signal on (possibly due to not
having any "clicking" for a reminder), and leads you to believe that
he/she is making a turn and then goes straight through the intersection.
I have seen and been in that situation more than once; usually, the
overzealous person already stopped will decide to enter the
intersection, and be hit in the side by the other driver going through
the intersection, seemingly in defiance of the signalled intentions
to turn.  In either case, the stopped driver is safer to allow the
other to clear the intersection (whether by going through or
actually following through with the turn) before proceeding.
