You're not a cop
You're not a paramedic
You're not a first responder
99.9% of the time you're not providing safety to nearby workers.

Turn off the lights you tool. If you don't I'm going to report you.

It's illegal unless used appropriately and I'm tired of noncompliant citizens.

I'm thinking about putting those lights in, just to use to get people out of my way in the left lane.
(nb4 it's illegal)

As a colorblind person, non-emergency vehicles with flashing lights irritate the shite out of me.

Entitlement attitudes irritate me. You do not get to avert traffic or drive up the shoulder with blinking lights then turn them off after you've passed the problem area. That is not right, its not what this country of ours was founded on.

Is the problem area the construction zone or did this happen in a random location?

The only thing they were driving when this country was founded was horses.

But seriously, unless they are in an active work area, like a construction zone or mowing the interstate, they are not suppossed to use them. They can't use them to drive up the shoulder and bypass a bottleneck because of a wreck.
