I'm with you on this one. After owning 4 Seats's in a row, I'm so used to the feature, it annoys me when it's not there
I agree too, maybe a mute point, but the "one flash right > one flash left" thing is not that sensible or legal, I'd leave that to the trucks and buses as they might still need it to say thank you, in the main car drivers don't need any
help on the road - whereas
they do sometimes. Still, on reflection that "one right > one left" thing is slightly better than someone in my driving pool - he uses his headlight flashers to say thank you to the driver behind him who slowed down to allow him to merge from a slip road - he says its totally bad manners not to do that - I'd think that the only driver that knows he is doing it - ie the one in front, thinks that he is a F**k-wit - and they would be correct!!
