Idk, I like to use it if the rain starts to fall very hard and I start to be at risk of hydroplaning if I don't significantly reduce my speed. :shrug:

I single blink my hazards to say "thank you" to the person behind me.
Is this not common?

Holy poo poo you fuckmen. The hazard lights are to tell other drivers you are a hazard or need assistance.
When it rains turn your headlights on, they are more visible then hazards and they also turn your taillights on a dim setting, making it easier for those behind you to gage distance. Also your turn signals can actually be used. (Unless you're one of those people who doesn't use turn signals, then double gently caress you)

If you want to thank another driver just wave.

Christ no wonder people die driving sober.

its almost like they designed the highway with multiple lanes so people could drive at different speeds in the same direction!
Something about "passing on the left, cruising on the right"
But gently caress me I don't know.

I just want every one of you idiots who drive with your hazards on in bad weather to realize that it's taking every fiber of my being not to hit you with a PIT maneuver and send your dumb rear end spinning into a ditch where you'll at last have your hazard lights on appropriately.

I get in the left lane and set cruise control to 5mph over the limit (so either 75 or 85) and stay the course. If someone wants to come up flashing their lights and honking, they can kindly place my dick in their mouth and pleasure me. I have no incentive to move and they're not going to hit me from behind. Besides, if they go faster then they're breaking the law by speeding and if I move over to enable then to speed, then I'm an accessory.

I've had one dude freak out, lay on the horn, flip me off while speeding away, and then a few minutes later I pull up at a stoplight behind him. I honked as the light turned green. It felt good until we pulled into the same apartment complex. Now I exit on the other side of the complex.
Holy poo poo. An accessory?
If some one wants to go faster then you then move over to the right. Its called a passing lane not the "Cruising at 5mph over the limit" lane.
