In driver's ed, they teach you that the way to drive is to turn on your blinker before you make a turn. This is false. Luckily, we have thought of all the reasons car blinkers are bad and posted them for you here.
You're welcome.
1. Let's say you're driving home from a day at the ballpark and you decide to stop and pick up a zesty ranch burrito for dinner. You flip on your blinker...but you forget your blinker is broken and your hazards come on. The guy behind you thinks you have an emergency and follows you as you turn into Taco Bueno with every intention of helping you out. This makes for an awkward encounter. As you dismiss his aid, he realizes that he is now late for a very important date... his wedding day. You have now ruined this young man's life because his woman doesn't think he wants her anymore, when really he was just being a good samaritan. Way to go, that burrito has now lost its zest.
2. This may be the most obvious danger, but car blinkers cause seizures. It's true. I knew a guy that knew a guy. It happens way more than it should. Think about it.
3. When having the bulbs changed in your headlights (let's say you went to the Car Doctor) they put them in backwards; now instead of blinking outwards your radio flashes like lights on the Vegas strip. Now whenever you go to turn left your car glows brighter than Rudolph's nose, leaving you blinded and swerving dangerously to and fro.
Let these words of wisdom lead you in the right direction... without the use of a blinker.
