Abstract [en]

This article takes an interest in how students at a driving school areinstructed how to make the car's behaviour intelligible (accountable)to other road users in traffic. Taking the indicator as an example,the analytic focus is on the ways in which the indicator'srelevance is instructed and its timely activation practiced, andhow activating the indicator is instructed as part of moreencompassing turning procedures. The indicator is one of the centralresources built into cars for displaying to others a driver'sintention about where to go next. Although indicating does not,in itself, affect the movement of the car, activating the indicatoris crucial for allowing others to anticipate a car's movement inspace, and coordinate themselves with it. The analysis showshow instructors manage trainee drivers' instructed actions duringdriving by providing descriptions of what using the indicatoraccomplishes before a directive to turn (a), after a directive to turn(b), and as accounts for initiating correction of trainee driver carcontrol activity (c).

Abstract [sv]

Denna artikel undersöker hur körskoleelever instrueras i hurman gör sin bil förståelig (accountable) för andra trafikanter.Med bilens blinkers som exempel fokuserar analysen påinstruktioner om när det är relevant att använda blinkers, hurman blinkar i god tid, och, mer generellt, hur blinkerssignalenlärs ut som en integrerad del i vissa körmanövrer. Blinkers ärkanske bilens viktigaste instrument för att visa andra vart manavser att köra härnäst. Även om inte aktivering av blinkers isig får bilen att ändra riktning, är blinkersanvändning avgörandeför att andra ska kunna förutse hur en bil kommer att röra sig,så att de därmed kan anpassa sin körning. Analysen visar hurinstruktörer på ett strukturerat sätt formar elevers bilkörninggenom att påpeka vad blinkers åstadkommer innan man ger eninstruktion att svänga (a), efter en instruktion att svänga; (b),och som förklaringar till en tidigare korrigering av elevenskörning (c).
