Wiper Parking switch gone, replace.

Check inline fuse under the panel between the wipers for your indicator problem.

For your indicators make sure the hazard switch is fully off.

Flasher relay could be sticking. when driving the vibrations (and shaking) caused by the car probably give it enough of a "jolt" to make it work.
Do you have a central speedo ? If so the relay is probably behind or slightly underneath the speedo cowling.
