Driver Gets Turn Signal Right But Almost Everything Else Wrong During Questionable U-Turn

A driver remembered to use their turn signal before turning. Too bad that may have been the only thing they got right.

A short video shared on Reddit shows a car making a strange move near a concrete divider. Instead of staying on the road, the car ends up on top of the raised barrier.

Other cars are passing nearby as the driver makes the turn. The move leaves viewers wondering where the driver was headed and whether the car was damaged.

Reddit user u/buckeyebrad3 shared the 30-second clip on October 10, 2026. The post, titled “At least she signaled [oc]?”, appeared in the r/IdiotsInCars community, where people had plenty to say about the turn.

As the car approaches the divider, its turn signal is on. But instead of making a normal turn, the driver steers onto the concrete, seemingly attempting a U-turn?

A red car drives by our turning friend, and one Reddit user wondered what the driver must have thought when they saw it happen.

Others were more worried about traffic. A commenter pointed out that if the driver had made the turn, the car might have ended up in the path of other vehicles.

So what was the plan? Was the driver trying to cross the divider, or did they simply turn too soon? The original post doesn’t explain why the car went that way.

That Looks Expensive

Some viewers focused less on the turn and more on the car. Driving onto a raised concrete barrier can put a lot of force on the parts underneath.

One person wondered if a wheel was about to come off, as one wheel looked loose. Another thought the car’s suspension looked bent backward. The suspension helps hold the wheels in place and keeps the car steady on the road.

Neither claim was confirmed, and the person who posted the video didn’t share any repair details. There’s no clear sign of how much damage, if any, the car suffered.

Other people found the strange turn funny. One Reddit user joked that the driver must have forgotten their lifted truck was in the shop. Another joked that the person might have believed they were driving an SUV.

Hard To Explain

Even after watching the clip, some viewers couldn’t figure out where the driver meant to go.

One person described the car as turning right while still moving left, and another couldn’t make sense of the move.

One of the last concerns raised in the comments was whether the driver could get off the concrete without tearing something loose from underneath the car. We have doubts.
