I think a bad idea would be to
straight wire one of your headlights
so that you could turn off one of
them at a time.
Then you could 'wink' at other
vehicles.
Whee.
If everyone did it there could then
arise more variations on highway
codes such as "cop ahead" or "go
ahead
and merge ahead of me".

keep it to quiet roads and lovers' lanes...otherwise it could cause mayhem. |

The custom here is to fishbone bad ideas. Since you didn't do it yourself, I'll do it for you. |

That would be a bad idea then.
Volkswagen already allow sidelights to be enabled via the indicator sticks while parked. Could this be confusing?. |

And both your turn signals could blink together. |

The problem with this is that it isn't necessary. We don't need to "wink" at the other drivers as we can already "blink" at them. It would just add to the confusion that's already out there. For example, someone flashes their lights at you. Immediately you have to go through a list of possibilities.... "is there a cop ahead? are my brights on? do i know him? is my turn signal on?" and so forth. Inevitably, there would be new meanings for the winking headlight, so you'd have to ask yourself more questions. |

Screw signalling. This would just be cool. |

How about super powerful xenon strobe lights. Just to freak everyone out. Credit to Steven Wright. |
