What does the light next to the hazard lights mean?

[MaximusLee]

The small light next to the hazard lights is a cornering light. Turn signals are important indicator lights that are activated when a motor vehicle turns to alert surrounding vehicles and pedestrians. The turn signal bulb uses a xenon tube, controlled by a microcontroller circuit, with left and right alternating flashes working continuously. Cornering lights mean that when the vehicle turns, the light will shine in the direction of the turn, usually illuminating the fog light on the turning side, and high-end headlights will also turn. Cornering lights refer to a separate set of bulbs (some vehicles use fog lights as cornering lights) that illuminate when the driver turns the steering wheel, helping to light up blind spots in the curve. Once the steering wheel is straightened, the cornering light turns off. Generally, cornering lights are in the form of independent bulbs and are placed inside the headlight housing. Compared to adaptive headlights, cornering lights are less expensive but not as effective in illuminating blind spots.
