DLR's can only help with one part of the problem but, as you yourself have mentioned when talking about the use of indicators, the issue is far wider.
Is decreasing the driver's responsibility the way forward??
Some in here complain about having to switch lights on when they drive a car with no DLR's. Is it really that hard??

Oh I agree that the issue's faced on roads are a lot wider and decreasing driver responsibility is definitely not the way forward, but with the onwards march of technology such as anti-stall, parking sensors, lane assist, ABS, collision sensing etc, I think the inevitable will happen of driver skill deteriorating, more reliance on the car's systems to drive from A-B and more complacency thinking the car will do it all for you.
You hear about the American who put his RV in cruise control and went in back to make a cuppa thinking it would drive itself. Then blamed the RV when it crashed on a bend!!
