I was behind a UW student who signaled the traditional bent-elbow
right turn (which would have taken him into the wall by Science Hall)
and then turned left. I caught up and asked and he said he was told
the "L" shape meant Left turn.  Not sure how he handled right turns,
but ... I  use the "L" but point, with my index finger, to the right a
few times, just to emphasize the direction I'll be turning.

Driver probably assume I'm just agreeing w/ there "needs his head
examined/few spokes short of a wheel" assessment but ...
