Driving Thoughts

Oct 27, 2008 - Turn Signals

I had a good bit to do this weekend, so I didn't get to do any 'just for fun' driving. However, I was behind a not-so-recent Toyota SUV at a light. He put on his turn signal and I thought 'holy fast blinkers Batman!' They were almost like a strobe light! Then that got me thinking, is there any standard for the flash rate of turn signals? I noticed that most vehicles are very close in their rate, but there are a few which are way outside the norm. There was one other car, I forget the make, where the flash rate was pretty slow. I wonder how fast the average car turn signals flash...
