What do the flashing lights on a car mean?

[RileyLynn]

Flashing lights on a car refer to: 1. Flashing the headlights once is used to indicate a turn. When visibility is obstructed while driving, flashing the lights once alerts oncoming vehicles or pedestrians to the car's intended direction, prompting them to prepare to yield or slow down accordingly. 2. Flashing the headlights twice serves as a reminder for the other vehicle to turn off their high beams, especially during nighttime driving when encountering a vehicle with improperly used high beams. Flashing twice helps avoid the glare from strong lights. 3. Flashing the headlights three times is mainly to alert the other vehicle that there may be potential hazards on the road ahead or to indicate that the other vehicle might have a problem.
