I honestly have never turned my flashers in the rain, but at the same time I have no idea why it bothers anyone. I drive on the interstate more than most. I've never been in a situation where them having the emergency blinkers on affected me. I much rather a person with their blinkers on compared to the person too stupid to turn their lights on at all.



Because if I see flashers on the interstate while driving in front of me, I will start to take evasive maneuvers.

That's kind of the point. Stopping or slowing would be an evasive maneuver. You see their lights, you are maybe driving faster than them, you start a maneuver to not run into them. Sounds like a decent plan. Again, I don't see where this causes an issue for anyone.

But why?

You know that 99% of flasher use in the roadway while it's pouring just signifies someone is driving slow. I have no clue why people care so much about this.

Things unique to this board -
1) Flashers on while driving is a national crisis
2) It's totally cool to leave your pistol in the truck all the time

Then the flashers did their job

If I'm driving on the interstate and I can't see 100 feet in front of me, I'm turning on my flashers just for safety. What's the difference between putting on your flashers in a less than ideal situation and driving with headlights on during the day?

I'm turning my flashers on for dicks that want to drive like an a-hole in a monsoon. I'm just making sure you see me going slower on the interstate. It's for my safety and for any big trucks that may not see me moving slower than normal.

Isn't that kind of the idea for having them on in the first place? So you don't hit them?
