We've long heard of it and now we have it.
Little known fact , blinker fluid make an excellent lube for noisy muffler bushings and helps to re-establish connections to dilithium crystals.
Good stuff.

Larry, I know you can install a dilithium crystal pack in my rig so I can hit warp speed up steep grades!  :D

You need another bottle.  That one is defective.  You can tell because in the lower right hand corner of the label is the error code 1d10t.  It  normally flashes when it displays.   It's blinking error code module is off the blink.

When I showed this picture to a friend (he's from Australia) he remarked that it must not be allowed in California, hence the heavy percentage of morons not utilizing that thing on the steering column :)

I'm guessing they will find buyers--just like the guy who was selling $40 bottles of Hot Dog Water in Canada.  ::)    ??? https://www.vice.com/.../this-dude-is-selling-dollar40-hot-dog-water-to- encourage-critical-thinking

Thank goodness for the days when TLC & HGTV actually taught things, and my electrical wiring night class at the local vo-tech (taught by one of the vo ag teachers) that helped educate me about right hand & left hand screwdrivers  ;) , & now all the wit & wisdom on this site...otherwise I might have been at risk to buy the defective jug pictured above.  ;D

pdl2win--RE: your Aussie friend:  he'd likely find me equally annoying here in Missouri, but for the opposite reason.  Whatever shuts off the blinker after a turn has expired on both L & R sides;  I'm too cheap to pay somebody to fix it, so must turn off manually (as with changing lanes)...unfortunately, being deaf as a fence post means I don't hear the clicking, which can result in blinking for blocks, until I happen to notice the light on the dash eyebrow.  Instead of a CA moron who never signals, I'm the old lady in Missouri who just keeps blinking along.

Whoa, whoa!  What’s with the bashing of California drivers?  Having lived here for nearly six decades, and driven nearly all the rest of the states, I find no more rude or nutty vehicle behavior here than in other areas, and less than some.  Just sayin. — Jon

Your friend must surely be referring to gear shift, right?  ;)

I've driven a car or an RV in my native state of California (and in every other state in the U.S. except three, and in western Canada, Mexico, Spain, Great Britain, and New Zealand), and I can state with certainty that no one location has a monopoly on poor drivers.  ::)

As ever, YMMV.

"I find no more rude or nutty vehicle behavior here than in other areas,..."

Hoo Boy! That's probably because it's so prevalent that you've become accustomed to it.  :(  [Cal resident]

Here's one of my hot button issues... there are double left turn lanes for a turn into a major traffic artery. Dumb driver sees his chance to get around corner first and so he chooses (you guessed it) the left most of the two turn lanes. It matters not that his intent, as soon as he's around the corner, is to exit the street from the right hand lane, crossing all others to get there.  >:(

Wouldn't you think it would be safer for all concerned if he had chosen the right hand position of the two left turn lanes?  Why, where's the logic in that?    ::)  :o

I always like to pull out this video whenever a discussion of bad driving occurs.  No Blinker Fluid required!

Well, we definitely need to spread the love around a bit, statewise, so I dug around in my blog and came up with this entry from way back in 2010. With apologies in advance to our sterling forum members from Washington, whom, I’m sure, are never guilty of such behavior 😉, . . .

CAR WARS
Now that we’re getting close to the Oregon border, a minor rant about driving characteristics between OR and WA.  When we first started in Oregon, we were amazed at how polite drivers were.  They made it easy to merge, always waived you on first at intersections, and would stop immediately if a pedestrian so much as glanced at a crosswalk.  Wow.  Among the best of all the states we’ve been in.  Then we got to Washington.

Yikes!  We’re voting WA drivers the absolute worst we’ve encountered.  Rude, impatient, dangerous.  They pull out from a side road at the last second, causing heavy braking and a torrent of cursing.  They pass on two lane bridges.  They tailgate.  Generally, they’re asses.

So, Oregon si!  Washington, bah!  [End]

One thing we all can agree on:  while RVing in our LDs, we are all driving perfection personified!  😁 — Jon

Of all he States and Countries I have driven in my vote would have to be for Denmark. I actually enjoyed driving among a very polite population of folks and their roads were also of the best quality.  :D

<big big smile> Before I look for a factual and unbiased study I'll state  my humble  well considered opinion ...... Oregon drivers are saintly and just near prefect but Washington drivers don't get me started.  

Ok for the facts as saw by insurance companies ....

Jon, at first thought I was thinking this might be the reason Oregon drivers were so courteous but then saw the timelines don't match:

Dude, you go first.  That's ok, Bro, I'm in no hurry, you go right ahead!

A neighbor of ours had her Danish relatives visit . . . what lovely people!  ;->   Only one spoke any English, but we had a lovely luncheon with interesting "conversations"!  This was about seven or eight years ago, and I have dreamed of visiting there ever since.
