Maybe learn to read?
You can be at a safe following distance for traffic, and have debris in the road that isn't stationary that takes a second or two to judge where it is going while braking and still needing to swerve because it is approaching faster than a hard braking car. Like stuff that falls off a construction vehicle and the car in front of you swerved around. There was plenty of time to brake if they stopped short, but this isn't the same thing.
Guess I could signal the moment I swerved but not sure how that is going to be helpful to anyone behind me to tell them what I am already doing.
Also, three car lengths isn't nearly far enough in slow traffic, and deadly on highways.
I do know how to read, you're the only one taking the example that is least likely to ever occur and pretending it's the only thing that could occur.
Use your damn blinkers dude.
