flasher question

[krazy kris]

Do people not understand what flashers mean? Get the fuck out of the way. How much faster can you legally drive with the flashers on? I figured 5 to 10 mph over the posted mph. I had to take my wife to the hospital last night because we thought she was going into labor. On our way there it seamed nobody knew wtf flashers meant, they would drive 5mph under the speed limit in the fastlane.

The ricers probably thought you were trying to race. No, no one knows shit about courtesy and understood signals anymore. We are getting closer and closer to the movie 'Idiocracy'.

Flashers aka hazards are not typically used to tell the world you are in a hurry. Typically when people use them they mean look out cause there is something wrong with my car or go around me because I'm moving slow as fuck.

Now...flipping the high beams on and off while laying on the horn...yeah that usually elicites more of a response. That to me screams "get the fuck out of the way!".

apparently you dont know what the flashing lights are for. The ones that get to the hospital faster are on an ambulance

You mean amberlamps.

oh I did my fair share of lighting them up but people just don't give a fuck anymore and as far as we live from the hospital it would have double the time to get there

Someone flashers being doesnt not signal me that they are in a hurry, usually, like stated above, its means something is wrong with your shit and you're going slow.

It's not that all the drivers in DFW are bad drivers, it's that they are dickheads.

I've never considered flashers to mean get the fuck out of the way. Only see them on cars that are driving super slow.

Flashers to me indicate some kind of emergency, and I'll get out of their way.

Let me know how that works out for you when you get pulled over for speeding.

just tell them fuck off your in a hurry

[Grimpala]

Yeah, those 'flashers' are technically called hazard lights. So when they are lit most people think there is a hazard, not that you now have the right to speed and drive erratically.

You're lucky no one got mixed signals and caused you to really need an amberlamps.
