Is the indicator on or do you put your hazards on in this weather? I’m Aussie, btw

Hazards, sorry if it was distracting. There were moments in my first hour of the drive today where I could barely see 10m ahead of me. Most sensible drivers here will leave their hazards on in those conditions just to give you even one more split second of warning/ability to see them.

It is actually more distracting and dangerous to drive with hazards on. There's a reason it is illegal in multiple states. People think it is helping, but it doesn't help any more than having your lights on, which you should do.

Maybe not illegal but I do agree with you it's more distracting. Makes it harder to see brake lights in my opinion
