    The combined indicator/brake light thing you guys do is fucking stupid, so there’s a precedent.

      I’ve always hated that. I feel like I’m seeing it less and less on newer vehicles, though, so maybe manufacturers are also realizing that it’s stupid as hell.

      Or maybe it’s just not worth the cost to have two different but mostly identical versions of a very expensive and highly integrated modern taillight housing for different markets.

      Agreed. Are they turning, or just braking periodically with a taillight out? Who knows!

      I also love the front turn signals that turn off that headlight. Dumb as hell for everyone.

      Also, animated signals should be banned. On or off, no flashing, glowing, or sliding.

      Clearly it’s your fault for both breaking and going around a corner at the same time. Who does that?
