🚦 DID YOU KNOW? 🚦

Forgetting to use your turn signal isn't just a bad habit — it's a traffic violation that can cost you money, points on your license, and even lead to bigger legal trouble. 🚗💨

Here's the thing: an officer can use a simple signal violation as a reason to pull you over — and once you're stopped, things can escalate fast if they find something else. ⚠️
