    Seriously, that's your argument? Just because the regulation isn't enforced you shouldn't follow it anymore?

    You're worse than the those who don't know what the rules are then, because you already know it's not a safe thing to do and yet you still do it.

    And, if I may, the emergency brake system you are using to try and make your point, it means the vehicle has stopped already because of the emergency and is no longer moving. See the difference? Hazard (Not Hazzard, BTW) lights are good to use if the car is already stationary during an emergency situation, accident, has broken down, etc.

    Hazard Lights + Stopped Vehicle = Good. It's just logical.

    emergency blinking brake lights.
    the pros and cons are discussed by vince ****elos in autoindustriya.com.
    it's in google.

    on the use of hazard lights with the vehicle moving,
    majority of published automotive literature clearly puts someone on the wrong side of automotive history.

    OT.
    kawawa naman si vince.

    Probably the regulatikn is flawed for philippine condition. Countries enforcing that regulations have other regulations that are more strictly enforced to make the non use of hazzard lights feasible. In the US , some states have anti hazzard law while other states allow it. Countries in South America have liberal application of hazzard lights, from pedestrian crossing to parking on the curb.

    Cars in emergency braking are not going to stop in 1 second it will be in motion for several seconds depending on a lot of conditions from speed, tire, road condition, brake condition. ABS was invented to prevent brake lock so you can steer during this window. The hazzard lights in that emergency braking will trigger as soon as the system sence the force on the brake.

    Review the video again and see that car is in motion while the hazzard light is flashing. You can even count the seconds before the car in the animation completely stops although the stopping distance is quite conservative from reality.

    In strict sense in the use of hazzard lights in the philippines Vehicle in stopped position from emergency braking is not an exemption in the use of hazzard lights , not unless the vehicle is stopped due to collision.

    sir we are talking about using of hazzard lights continuously which you and I (or probably you don't) know poses danger on the road specially to the ones behind such vehicles, your post about toyota's emergency blinking lights is quite far from what we are discussing here, nice find though...

BUS accident again
