...or turning on their parking lights instead of their headlights at dusk, which is actually illegal in Louisiana. If you need your parking lights for me to see you, then you need your headlights for you to see me.

These threads always result in the most glorious melts every six months. It’s one of the most triggering things for some drivers.
I thought flashers in the rain was determined to vary by state as to whether illegal or not?

Just because someone on here hasn’t gotten in a wreck because of it doesn’t it isn’t an unnecessarily dangerous practice. This can’t be taught in driver’s Ed classes, so it is a practice created by poor drivers that is spreading because of a complete lack of information. To justify it further encourages the bad practice…which is in most states illegal

Agreed.
Because actually with the way light is distorted in hard rain and especially at night, it’s actually not safer at all

You can't tell the difference between flashers and brake lights?
You can't tell when someone puts their blinker on when they have their flashers on. People putting their flashers on probably don't use their blinkers right anyway.

It is ALWAYS stupid to drive with flashers. Flashers are for when you are disabled and have become a road hazard.

How many of you idiots are getting in wrecks because someone has their flashers on? If this bothers you or you “can’t tell if someone is braking” then you’re just a shitty driver.
“This dangerous thing is okay because it doesn’t result in catastrophe every single time”
Are you stupid?

It is actually illegal, but these idiots are only to be topped by the dumb asses that drive in the left lane.

You sound like someone that, in my opinion, shouldn’t drive.

People put their flashers on in a blinding rain because they’re hoping it prevents the f*cking morons that don’t slow down from hydroplaning and hitting them. The notion that flashers are dangerous is just dumb. What’s dangerous is the dumbass that continues to drive 70-80 mph down the interstate when it’s pouring like that. Some of us got kids in the car motherfrickers.
