I think that’s more geared towards people with strobes installed, than flashing your headlights… ---

I had my ass saved a few times too so I return the favour when I can. Unless it’s some ricer speeding up the road or some guy in a real expensive car, I figure the ricer deserves it and the rich guy can afford it so why not, for some reason rich people pay less taxes in Canada so I figure it’s a way for them to pay what they avoided paying in the first place. ---

LOL im not back, i just posted a post or two 🙂 LIKE OMG WTF FAGS my head hurts already with the advanced vocabulary 🙂 I’ve been unbanned for months, just there’s nothing useful to post or read about except the sales section and on occasion pictures of 240s/spotted thread. The world is bigger than son’s racer bois 😉 Of course there’s the occasional funny pics that tickle me. I did laugh at that “Taurus brakes this car has none” 😛 Other than that I’ll LOL elsewhere/learn about 240s elsewhere 🙂 This is what some older members other than the usual crowd told me they do too that is all 🙂 I use my time more effectively than arguing with bums on the internet. _end WTF UR BACK_ response Edit: To be honest, I have been unbanned for a long time, I would read once in a while, I could read without an account anyways mostly the sales section and sponsors/etc… but the thing that made me lauugh is the same things as now and before, the pointless bickering and rampant immaturity yelling, WTFs and whatever else. That’s the reason I decided not to bother posting on this forum, it’s retarded and a waste of time. That’s not everyone though, just the too cool to be on here crew. ---

I think the code goes something like this: -Flash your highbeams oncoming = cops -Flash your hibeams from behind = GTFO of the way - Extended single oncoming hibeams = hibeams are are blinding drivers -Turn your lights on / off = other driver has no headlights on -4ways while braking means serious braking ahead or road is fizzucked EDIT: When did cars star coming with DRLs and auto cluster lights? Seems last few years Hondas and Toyotas have auto dash lights so all these clowns driving around at night with no lights…at least a dark dash was a hint you need to turn them on? WTF? ---

They do that to challenge another vehicle to an illegal street race. The auto-on cluster is kinda messed up when not accompanied by auto headlamps, most cars I know that have one, have the other as well, but there’s those annoying few cars which have no visible cluster unless it’s on, so it’s on day and night and it causes people to forget sometimes. ---

In Japan here they have a new trend. At intersections, they shut of their HIDS (well mostly HIDS). So at intersections its totally dark, then when they go they flip em back on - its to prevent glare and eye strain. Some new cars have this feature on the auto switch.
