it's wild how many people drive around with their hazard lights on in non-hazardous conditions, is this a substitute for actual driving skills or something?

what's the point of hazard lights if you use them all the damn time? just admit you're a shitty driver.

same, it's infuriating. also, i'm pretty sure it's a status symbol now - "look at me, i'm signaling distress from 3 miles away

nah, sometimes i just forget to turn them off. get off my ass, it's not that deep.

fr tho, hazard lights are not a replacement for learning how to actually drive.

idk man, maybe they're just trying to be visible in crappy weather or at night? doesn't seem that deep

are you seriously complaining about this and not about, idk, all the reckless idiots who tailgate and don't use turn signals?

yeah maybe we can just put hazard lights on our smartphones and drive with our screens down

like that's not even a thing i drive a chunky Honda i need my lights on constantly i'm not asking for pointers on defensive driving

y'all are just burning out a extra light because your mechanics skills are straight trash

they're just trying to say "caution: im low on gas, not just warning others

what the fuck are you talking about? hazards are there for a reason, maybe they need to slow down or merge or something.

People use hazard lights for more than just emergencies, they're also a warning to others on the road so drivers can prepare for a potentially slow or unpredictable situation.

omg yessss its so annoying and also r they not aware that it's not a substitute for using their

people rly have that little situational awareness. Huh? don't they realize they're just making other drivers' lives harder?

hazard lights aren't a threat to anyone's skills, they're for safety when you're in a situation where you're not driving slow enough to be stopped by traffic but not going fast enough to use your

nah mate, hazards are for when you're driving like a complete fookin' idiot and can't stay in your lane.

idk what ur talking about, people gotta deal with some sketchy drivers on the road, hazard lights

yeah for real, people use their hazards way too much. its like they're just driving around saying "look at me, i can't drive for shit!

couldn't agree more. it's like they're just begging for attention or trying to make up for their lack of driving ability.

hazard lights are just the turn signals for people who forget how to turn.

do you really think they're doing it as some kind of compensatory mechanism or are you just making

hazard lights are the new turn signals these days. who needs to know where you're actually going when you can just blind everyone around you instead?

Do they think hazard lights somehow magically alert everyone around them to their decision to brake for a pedestrian, or is it just a easy way out of actually being a competent driver?

Y'all must be familiar with the new "vision of safety" law - put your blinkers on and hope the apocalypse slows down!

are you trying to say most people who do this are somehow less competent drivers or is that just a

hazards on all the time is stupid af. if you can't drive without putting on your hazards, you should not be on the road.

do you think it's possible some people genuinely don't know the purpose of hazard lights?

yeah and same with people who leave their turn signals on for miles, it's like they're begging to get ignored by other drivers. goes to show how little attention most people pay to the road

nah that's not it at all. the hazards are for when you're going slow af and holding up traffic.

nah, that's just entitled bs. some folks need those lights on for real reasons, not everyone is a perfect driver. mind your own driving.

are people really that oblivious or are they just relying on the "i'm a worse driver than you" warning sign?

I use mine when it's pouring rain or snowy, just a courtesy to other drivers, doesn't make me a bad driver.

ikr? hazard lights are for emergencies, not because you can't stay in your lane.

omg yes and dont even get me started on the ones who leave them on in pouring rain or fog like what even is that

yeah, it's either that or they're just signaling they're lost

is it really that hard to check your mirrors and adjust your speed before even thinking about the hazards?

i know right? some people just use their hazards as an excuse to drive however they want. no consideration for other drivers at all.

fr it's like they just hit the hazards and autopilot kicks in. zero driving awareness, smh.

I know, right? Hazards are for emergencies. Not because you can't stay in your lane. Maybe try using your mirrors instead of relying on flashing lights to make up for poor driving.

same, it's like they're giving themselves a participation trophy just for existing on the road

are you teh hazard lights police or something? mind your own business and focus on your own driving.

idk what kinda driving you're doin, but where i'm from, hazard lights just mean someone's being polite, doesnt mean

I drive with my hazard lights on all the time on rainy days, it's a courtesy to other drivers. It doesn't seem to make your driving skills magically appear if you're checking your phone at a red light though.

I see it all the time too - like, you're driving down the highway and someone's hazard lights are on for no reason.

wait are you just now noticing this or are you genuinely surprised people have always been reckless

do you have any idea how many people actually know what their hazard lights are even for?

idk, maybe they just want to signal that they're not actually sure where they're going

idk what's wild is you noticing this and not the actual reckless drivers on the road. hazard lights aren't the problem, buddy.

do people really think hazard lights make up for tailgating or reckless merging?

do people think it's a valid excuse for not driving defensively? sounds like a bunch of insecure navigators to me

are these the same people who still use their fog lights in broad daylight too?

idk but it's just a desperate cry for help... or a hack for making people think they're a funeral

same. it's also like, a bad gps warranty or something, lol are they prepared for an actual emergency or just trying to feel safe while parking?

some people just love to judge others. hazard lights aren't for driving skills. They're for safety when the conditions aren't ideal. mind your own business and focus on your own driving.

idk why you're on here ranting about people with hazards on, maybe just drive better and it won't

or maybe it's just their way of warning everyone that they're behind the wheel

Don't people realize it's just wasting gas and drawing unnecessary attention to themselves?

idk what you're even talking about, hazard lights are not that deep.

it's just a signaling of how lost we are in life, not just traffic

idk why you're making a big deal out of it, hazard lights are just a courtesy to other drivers, calm down

I'm so with you on this. and can we also talk about how people think their car is the only one on the road when they don't check their mirrors or signal before merging?

same energy with people who leave their headlights on in broad daylight, like are you even paying

lmao maybe they're just trying to warn everyone else that they're on the road

Are you suggesting that people who actually know how to drive don't use their hazards in parking lots to alert others?

Totally agree, it's become an excuse for people to drive recklessly while trying to deflect their own responsibility.

now we know what they mean by 'rubbernecking' but idk if that's a good thing

lmao literally just saw someone do this in the parking lot, like whats the emergency, finding a

it's just a sign of love... they're just showing off their hazards to the world

lol probably just trying to warn other drivers that they're about to make a questionable life choice behind the wheel

hazard lights are the new driving skill, everyone knows that 😂 gotta let the other drivers know you're a professional

Completely agree with this. a lot of people put their hazards on without realizing it's not doing anything for their visibility. And it's also just a bad habit when it comes time to deal with actual emergencies.

idk, maybe they're just trying to flash their personalities

Must be a lot of hazards on the road if they need those lights on all the time! Maybe they're just trying to signal to everyone else that they have zero idea what they're doing

are we really gonna pretend like the real mystery is the hazard lights and not the people who think they're a good driver but actually suck?

are you the driving police or something? mind your own business and keep your eyes on the road.

omg yes and can we also talk about how some people think their headlights are somehow invisible to oncoming traffic just because they're on

why does it bother you so much what other drivers do? mind your own lane and worry about your own driving.

d'you think maybe people don't wanna get sued when someone gets unlucky enough to smash into them while they're already

idk, are you really asking that or just trying to prove how smart you are?

same, I'm guilty of yelling at people in a non-emergency situation, I mean what's next, using your fog lights as headlights?

hazard lights are the new blinkers, you didn't get the memo?

are you just mad because you got passed by someone with their hazard lights on?

agree 100% i'm guilty of swerving to get away from people who think hazard lights means "hey look at me, i'm not an idiot

omg yes i was just saying this to someone the other day! it's like, are you that scared of driving or are you just trying to make a statement?

Ah, it's just because they're trying to light up the road with their lack of expertise

yeah no kidding, and it's even worse when they leave them on in perfect weather just because they're 'extra cautious'... hazards are not a force field, learn to drive already

it's just a substitute for turn signals, and also sanity, and possibly basic human functionality

it's just a warning sign that they're about to drive badly

are they just really concerned about being seen or do they actually think it makes them visible to other drivers?

totally agree with this! it's also a symptom of people being afraid to merge or change lanes, and

hazard lights = hazardous drivers. Am i right? 🤣

Are people really so incompetent behind the wheel that a little extra visibility is necessary just to feel safe?

hazard lights are actually a visible sign to other drivers that you're having car trouble or something's off, it's not supposed to be a

omg yes!! it's like, either you're a novice driver or you're trying to manifest a safe passage. either way, let's work on those driving skills and ditch the hazards, folks

because a flashing brake light and a bewildered expression are basically the same thing

at my startup we call this " DevOps for bad drivers

are you implying people's driving skills are somehow correlated with their awareness of traffic laws?

Hazard lights aren't for driving skills, they're for when there's an actual hazard. People who use them just to look important are clueless. Get off the road if you can't drive properly.

totally agree with this. is it also a thing where they think it makes them look safe or something?

i know right? it's like they're afraid to actually drive their car or something. hazards are for emergencies.
