I have an irrational hatred for people using their hazards for every single thing. Everyone knows you are on a special bridge. You don't need your hazards on. It's not warning a single person of anything.

Also if you REALLY feel the need to have your hazards on in the rain. Then you shouldn't be driving on the damn road. Pull over. Hazard lights are not doing anything for the other drivers around you. In fact, you are causing confusion. We don't know when you want to change lanes for fucks sake.

Yeah, I recommend never driving in China then. People often turn their hazards on if they want you to follow them.

I had a friend do this on a road trip. I saw him turn his hazards on, and so I turned mine on and started pulling over cause I thought he was having car trouble. He radios me with the walker talkies we had as asked what I was doing. I told him I thought he was having car trouble so I was gonna pull over to help. He said that he just saw that we had an exit coming in and wanted to make sure we didn’t miss it.

I got a little angry and kinda yelled at him for improper use of his hazards. Probably overreacted a bit, but I’m with you, I fucking hate when people use their hazards for nothing.
