Trying is the most important thing, but so is realizing that we all have off days. I've missed a turn signal once or twice I'm sure, if I've got too much on my mind. Hopefully other drivers will cut me slack if I cut them slack. Then there are others who expect everyone else to be perfect, while they are excused from the same rules. Those folks are tough to interact with. Hopefully they'll get to the point where they want to be the best they can be too. :) I’m perfectionistic about some things but not others.

It also depends whether that lack of perfection is a safety issue. Lack of turning signals is a problem. Thank you notes isn't safety, but you sure are impressed when someone takes the trouble to do it. (I'm not great at that.) Like you said, doing your best matters, and consideration for others, understanding the impact of your behaviour could make a real difference. This could be an endless topic.
