Why do you Australians insist on having orange turn signals????? What's your vendetta against our American red????
>>
The rest of the world uses orange turn signals, mate. It's the US that has it backwards.

It affects me because they were built for this country and this country only, for example if the Australians wanted a Chevy they have Holden...they wouldn't close down Holden next year if they did, another example from 1997-1999 Chevrolet used to build a Factory right hand drive Chevrolet Suburban built for Australia and badged as a Holden but it didn't sell well....... I'm just holding on to my American roots.... And not Supporting change....
>>
>>16235540
However all they have to do is come over here and do some research and learn that they don't need to overreact and add orange their tail lights, people will distinguish the difference between a red turn signal and a red brake light just the same....

Not really. It takes a few seconds to figure out if its a turn signal or someone tapping on the brakes. Particularly if one side is obscured. People get cut off tying to change lanes frequently.

Americans are just so used to shit driving, they don't notice.
>>
>>16235534
Because it's fucking dumb and needs to be phased out.

>can't tell if brake light out and epileptic braking or turn signal on

Embrace your orange flashing overlord, cunt.

>>
Because using brake lights as indicators isn't the safest or smartest idea ever
>>
>>16236219

With the signal light on you still have the other brake light and the high mount brake light still on, which is easier to differentiate than a turn signal right beside a brake light.
>>
>>16236204
What are you even trying to say?
>>
>>16236219
Kike
There is no significant data to suggest that's truth, that's just theoretical.
It's like slapping 5mph bumpers on ferin cars, it's ruining them, they were never designed to have separate bulbs for turn signals.
People need to seriously get off their high horse and start fighting back against over regulation in the car industry.
>>
>>16237326

Mate we've had orange indicators since forever.. same with the rest of the world. It's like you dumbasses with your shitty imperial system all over again
>>
>>16237335
You're wrong, and you're not listening.
And the standard system is superior to metric in so many ways.
That's the reason the debate goes on to this day.
You're just pretending to enjoy being cucked by the French.
Tomorrow when you talk about inches, miles, pints, and pounds try to remember how you think Australia is metric.

Doesn't the entire world use orange indicators except for the amerilards?

If you actually read that you'd see how that just shows the massive margin of error for the relatively tiny sample size they have to make data from.
>>
>>16235696
You do know how turn signals work right? Even if he was braking & using the turn signal it would be apparent that the signal is working.
Why? One side will be solid red while the other side will be red blinking consistently.
And if the brakes aren't touched only one side would start blinking.
You must be proper shit at driving if you have to think about whether or not they're signaling.
Yes, I'm triggered
>>
>>16237410
Using the same light for braking and turn signal is still fucking retarded my man.
>>
>>16237348

I work in construction and I can assure you no one here uses the imperial system. Please explain how the imperial system is superior when wanting precise measurements.

>Quotes some fraction of some guys foot measurement
>>
>>16237463
This. There is no reason not to use the metric system. Its more precise, its more logical, its easier. The only reason america isnt using it is because its gonna spoke a civil war if they try to change it.

>300 AD + 1716

>>16235696
>It takes a few seconds to figure out if its a turn signal or someone tapping on the brakes
Have you ever driven a car?

You would have to be amazingly high not to be able to tell the frequency of a turn signal indicator is alot faster than somebody tapping a brake pedal.
>>
>>16235534
I'm an 'murican and I can't stand red turn signals. Especially when they are extra lazy and combine the turn signal with the brake light. Are you tapping the brakes consistently due to slow traffic or wanting to change lanes? Fuck you.
>>
>>16237348
Tone it down, autismo.
>>
>>16237463
>Precise
A go too argument for metric fags.
1/16th barely larger than a mm, and 1/32, you know a common mark on the first foot of a tape is smaller.
And if you work construction you'd know precision and construction do not go hand in hand.
And if you actually knew anything about the measuring system you're fighting so hard against you'd know how great using a base 2 fractional system is for on the fly in your head math.
Meanwhile Celsius your favored temperature system is in increments so large you need to use decimals.
Pascals are such a ridiculous unit that you need to use them in the hundreds of thousands to even get to numbers even remotely workable.
And trying to use newtons periodically is ridiculous for nontradesmen because it's not a unit that's in day to day life. It's the equivalent of asking someone raised on metric to guess a weight in grains.
>>
>>16237469
>There is no reason not to use the metric system. Its more precise, its more logical, its easier. The only reason America isn't using it is because its gonna spoke a civil war if they try to change it.
There is no reason to not the the English language, it's more ubiquitous, it's more structured, it's easier. The only reason there are still countries speaking their individual languages is because it's going to take a civil war to change it.
There is no reason to not use the USD, it's the standard all other currencies value is based around, it's well scaled, it's easier. The only reason there are still countries printing their own money is because it's going to take a civil war to change it.
Metric is no more precise than any other system of measure, This is the biggest joke. It's like a kid in the school yard shouting a higher number. 1, not 0.1, no 0.001!
Base 10 is inherently illogical, and setting standards around arbitrary "constants" is ridiculous from a human perspective, it's not logical, it's illogical, it's a system designed with no thought or care for the people using it.
Metric is not easier, as I explained before, a fractional system is much easier for on the fly calculations, and standard frequently takes advantage of the inherent superiority of a base 12 system. But like you don't have any trouble thinking about days in base 12, or years in base 12, we don't have any trouble thinking about degrees is base 12 either. When you get to logarithmic scales people have trouble working with it. But you're not in here complaining about Decibels are you? Hey! they use a base 10 scaling naming scheme just like Metric!
the only reason the rest of the world is using Metric is because of French imperialism. Look who you're happily bowing down to, and who you're bowing along side. A bunch of 3rd world shit holes.
The commonwealth only uses Metric officially because they've been cucked. But the people still regularly use standard.

Brake light indicators are pretty terrible. I've seen worse though, I saw a negro with a 3 series coupe and he'd modified the brakes to flash like mad (super bright LEDs) for a second or so before going solid.

Metricfication is a globalization movement, which is an anti-nationalist movement, which is a getting cucked.
Destroying the cultures that built the modern world is destroying progress.
And only liberals thing that progress is letting Tyrone the 22 year old Syiran refugee from Nigeria into your home to fuck your wife.

>everyone puts their hazards on to warn the people behind them while braking
>with other every car you could immediately see that they're both indicating and braking

Yeah ofcourse, it may be a rare example, but still proves that using brake lights as indicators aswell has its problems

>>16238770
This is the only arguable downside.
Hazards while braking in set up with only one bulb for the brakes and turn signal without a third brake light.
>>
>>16235589
Apparently not because your traffic fatality rate is higher than ours, and we have the only unlimited speed highway in the world.
>>
>>16237410
Until a bulb goes out and your wisdom goes to shit. Just fucking face that amber signals ARE an unnecessary hazard

.....U.S. studies in the early 1990s demonstrated improvements in the speed and accuracy of following drivers' reaction to stop lamps when the turn signals were amber rather than red
