i have new bulbs all around and my indicators work properly. however, i get honked at regularly because it would seem that other drivers do not see the indicator light when i am turning or changing lanes. during the day is the problem as all lights are bright at night. anyone else have this problem? any solutions?
cheers, scott |

Solution- keep your eyes on your rear view mirror. The tails just aren't bright, or high enough for most of today's drivers. Ninety percent are Tards in my book. They easily assume that since your in a small vehicle, it's not going to hurt them. Some FU mentality for sure. Pay attention and you will see for yourself.
Euro rear assembly's might help, Still dealing with Tards however. My .02 worth! Bob |

Bob agree on the "tard" issue. interesting is that it is often drivers in front of me turning in to traffic. cut me off and/or i have to swerve to miss them. they are looking at me and still honk and let me know i am "#1" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) we collectively, meaning someone with more skill than i, need to make a brighter solution to our signals. i have seen some prototypes on the board for LED tail lights. get this done all around and we can all be safe. i drive like i used to drive a road bike.... like everyone can't see me. cheers, scott |
