    I just like to tell the Americans that this is your fault. You have lacks traffic laws that allow this kind of thing. This isn’t be legal in the UK.

          Yeah regardless of what the above guy says I’m pretty positive separate indicators are actually EU mandate that the UK still follows because it turns out most EU laws are actually sensible, who knew.

            I think they just meant that the rear tail lights have the union jack and didn’t realize they were talking about the amber indicators.

        I thought it was an EU law but maybe not. All indicators have to be separate lights, you can’t flash the brake light like that. It must be a proper indicator light.

        So here they have the same basic look for the lights, i.e. the union jack effect, but that LED panels and they kind of pulse in the direction of the indication so it’s much less confusing, they don’t just flash on and off.

      Lax* short for “relaxed.”

      Not trying to be a dick, just took me a minute going “how does one ‘have lacks,’ one can ‘have a lack of,’ one can ‘lack,’ but ‘have lacks?!’ OHHHH.” Lol
