hazardlights

Hazard lights, also known as hazard warning lights or hazard flasher lights, are a set of flashing lights typically found on the front and rear of vehicles. They are designed to warn other road users of the presence of a potentially hazardous vehicle, such as a stationary vehicle on the road or a vehicle that has broken down. Hazard lights are usually activated by a switch located on the steering column or dashboard, and they flash alternately or simultaneously, depending on the vehicle's design. In some cases, hazard lights may also be activated automatically in certain emergency situations, such as when the vehicle's airbag is deployed. It is important to note that hazard lights should not be used as a substitute for turn signals, as they do not indicate the driver's intended direction of travel. Additionally, using hazard lights for extended periods of time can be distracting to other drivers and should be avoided.
