Pass me my flat cap and driving gloves

As I get the bus and/or train to work I don't do a lot of driving, but this weekend I seemed to be on the road more than I am normally. One thing that I noticed were the number of drivers that steadfastly refuse to use indicators. That is something that really bugs me as it's a fundamental part of driving and can be very dangerous if you don't do it. Have all new drivers been told not to use them so much? Does it save wearing the bulbs out? I know learners are taught to go into neutral gear when slowing down at traffic lights etc but using indicators is a safety factor.
